Ever After

Ever After

No standards can define the love we've prepared, ignited, and bestowed upon this world.

You are the very meaning of forever and tomorrow.

If given the chance, I'd choose your hand in mine.

To hold..

In the most intimate displays of affection,

Your touch taught sincerity in the most tender  of moments.

That hope wasn’t only for the love stories I created in spaces of my mind.

Love and loving you were always one in the same...

Beautifully arranged like the collection of my favorite poetry

You and I were always penned so perfectly...

Painfully introduced and molded within the glue that merged our spirits together..

Out of all of the stories I've read

This was the one I never looked for the plot to be solved

Because such a discovery always presented an ending

One I never in...

Free Falling

There's something so rare about falling.... 

That fearlessness that soars throughout me... 

..it's liberating, actually.

knowing the path between the catching of your eyes and the thrill of your arms are limited.

Indeed, it's perilous

Yet somehow, I opt to lay my faith right  in the center of your dripping thorns and undone love..

Daringly, as if hopes aren't sinking dreams themselves fighting to stay afloat...

And even then I'd choke.

Because there's something so "Shakespeare" about drowning with you.

One Day

One day.

I promise I’ll stop chasing your face through passing times of loneliness.

…Mondays from today

I’ll cease kisses that are no longer existent..

And I’ll stop pretending to feel sprinkles of your lips upon my face.

That day..

I’ll turn towards pink skies

And they will no longer be filled with clouds that once spelled out your name.

...I’ll walk upon blades of grass

And I’ll smile…

Because the soil no longer reflects  the remembrance our shame

Yeah.

Maybe?

One day.

BUT UNTIL THEN…

I’ll continue to fill my soul with the hindrance of our dying w...

Unguarded (Her) Pt 1

Intense breaths and hollow sighs

You gazed upon me and questioned my desires

And through broken words and rapid heartbeats, I challenged your bluff

“You”

…the only sounds that managed to gasp onto my lips as my eyes pierced the center of your core.

“You”

I uttered again

…Daring your denial

Feeling the knot in my throat tighten

As if my words had fallen onto deafened ears

However it was…

You…

Whom I breathed…

Restlessly craved

Inexpressible and undeniable

It had always been you

And with no hesitation

I stripped my chest of its invulnerability and bared my truths

Only for you to find your face resting within

Solely then... did your eyes soften..

As did my breathing…

And with unrelenting strides,

I rushed towards your defiance..

He Awakened

I was greeted with God’s presence in the face of a male angel

He found me lighted In the realm of hell’s dark space

My hands stretched to his wings only to find myself fall.

Deep into the eyes,  of the smile

Of the heaven embedded along his jaw line’s wall

And through the essence of his touch... caresses proved so brief

There... I sat reminded of the chest that so  righteously lacked breast

That once as an adolescent in distress..

I yearned to find comfort through

His skin glazed of the sun’s lips

...As I asked him to partake of mine

Who knew those few shortness of breaths only reached as far in depth... As a cycle of bills time?

His baby trace of an exterior showed to be manifested years prior.

Yet the intellect of that soul depicted  generations before.

Oh yes...

That so...
