Blooming Passion •• Ryan Tedder {1}

~poems~

"She writes things with her movements

that I

for the life of me

could never write with a pen."

~

"I admit, I was afraid to love.

Not just love, but to love her.

For she was a stunning mystery.

She carried things deep inside her

that no one has yet to understand,

and I,

I was afraid to fail,

like the others.

She was the ocean and I was just a boy

who loves the waves but was completely terrified

to swim."

~

"She buried her ears

into the calm of his heartbeat,

and in a matter of seconds:

fell terribly in love with the way her loneliness fell softly

and suddenly, asleep,

in his chest."
