I know I'm in love.
I could pin my feelings to a point,
recite them backward,
because I know I'm in love.
His chiseled voice leaves naked kisses on my skin
I'm bare for him.
Days don't count but breaths do
Sharing the same sun but never the same sunset
Silence tears at my bones,
Unfinished words speak to my heart...
His eyes warm me,
the beauty under my skin glows.
And I feel less cold.
But the oceans have never felt so cold
my tears in a droughtcheekbones like boulders
Delicate fingers molding me into shape
just kiss it all away.
But why do step seems so much longer?
His feet will touch my grounds
Break down time until it's just the two of us
Watch autumn, winter and spring die
Then we can water the flowers together.
He's not here,
and I'm not there.
But yet, I'm in love.
