I feel the adrenaline rushing through my veins as your rush into my arms and whisper beautiful words in my ear.

If kisses were stars you’d be embedded within the galaxies and collide with my solar system.

#18

Laced with lost smiles hooked through loops so cautiously

For you were so delicate a rose, on my shoulder along with my heart

You wrapped around and fused yourself to my lungs

Because my voice will now always speak your name

I forgotten how your fingers felt under the blankets we hid

and I forgotten how your mouth slid words off your tongue like atomic bombs upon my heart seams.

I forgotten how to speak of a flower as anything more than a rose petal.

Love me not yanked one by one as I tossed out stems once harboring what we had.

For once.

I could drown in your eyes but only because the tide is so high and dangerous. I been swimming for what if feels like an eternity and now my arms are too weak to tread your wavy shore anymore.

I write too many love poems too even know what love is anymore. It’s but a feeling that will leave you empty and emotionless, like a hole in your cup as you frantically try to guzzle down whatever is left to make you feel whole again.

Feelings might be just simply chemical processes in my brain but what I feel can’t be described in simple Stoichiometry and Chemistry quite doesn’t cut it

I want to dance with you until our bodies grow weak and stumble over sore feet and fall in love
