I Was Lost

When it was over, I was lost.

Courage Slips Through My Rib Cage

Gentle impressions on a relaxed mind, erasing truths and reformulating the minerals coursing through muscle. The eyes, deep. The skin, warm. The breath, shallow. Courage slips through my rib cage and presents itself between us. With such a leader, I am content to follow, and there can be no question I will see where this path will take me.

I Am Your Team

You will go through nothing without me, and if you do, you will feel none of it matters once you are back by my side. It doesn’t matter who else lets you down–consider me your team. I didn’t sign up to wimp out now–I came for the long-haul. So don’t be confused when I roll up my sleeves. I’m here to stay.

Lazy Day

My limbs refuse to sacrifice this comfort. I could listen to your breath for hours, content you wanted me by your side.

Falling To My Humility

Within me, that very night, I felt uninhibited by all fears. I found myself falling to my humility and professing my loyalty. Far from feeling smaller or dominated, I knew in those moments I was more free than I’d ever been…

I Bet You Know I Love You…

So, I bet you know I love you,
Though I rarely do say why…
It could be the sound of your breath in the morning;
It could simply be that you’re mine.

Perhaps it’s the way you look at me sideways,
Mystery deep in your eyes….
The playful glint you hold inside
Never fails to mesmerize.

When you hold my hand so tightly,
When your arms around me set,
When I breath your scent in deeply,
These moments I know for certain, I never could forget.

When you put a ring on my finger,
When you spoke my full new name,
When you’re nestled deep within me,
Living never felt the same.

I’m so blessed that you’re beside me,
Grateful and I’m lucky, too.
Please, Taitah, never forget,
I love you!
