“To hell with the world.” You’d said-
I’d told you that I don’t trust it to hold my...

You’re healing a heart you didn’t break,
It comes so naturally to you...

I used to joke about your name
as if it didn’t fit you...

I’ve never met anyone like you before-
But oh, the man that you are...

My fingers hover on the keyboard of my phone until...
My nose is in need of mint tea and spring storms...

Your features were traced in charcoal,
Not ink...

You showed up and like a girl-
I made jokes of dashboard lights and Christmas...

I told her that she is me-
If I’d had parents the way she has me and her...

I want soft candlelight and deep conversations;
Paired with warm blankets as soft as our laughter...

We were trouble while being troubled;
And it was the best two weeks of my life with you...

I woke up to warm blankets;
Sunlight filtering through the window in soft rays...

You remind me of the soft morning sunrises I use...
I felt so at peace as I watched the dolphins play...
