If You Let Me

the very best place
is in your arms and I could
stay there forever

Figuratively Speaking

Now you have me down
on my knees begging for you,
a gun to my head.

15/365 – A Poem a Day For a Year

there’s that
perfect place
where the sky
meets the sea
and that’s where
I feel like we met
and will keep meeting
because we are magic, too

I wrote the perfect
poem but I can’t share it
cause it will hurt you.

I don’t want to hurt
the one I love the most with
words I can’t take back,

so I will bury
the broken parts of me to
keep each other safe.

11/365 – A Poem a Day For a Year

I hate to ask for promises,
I know they are
so hard to keep.

Yet I’m willing to make
a million for you.
I want to promise you
myself, an us,
an everythingship.

I want to give you everything
you haven’t yet given me
and more and more and more.

I want to give you
everything you need and
everything you want and
I promise
I’ll never stop trying.
