Love At 4AM

Distance unveiled you to me, an incomprehensible idea of love that always eluded me, in peaceful silence I understood completely, what books never taught me

You held me like a promise, from the start; the promise of the young, to leave behind, ashes of a town that never once embraced the longing of it's people

With you, moments transcended the concrete poetry of the ever-present now, we are fashioned in an escape from the shorelines of time

I find no words in which to contain you, yet you stretch across the pages of contemplation, I know only that I love you: that I have only loved you

You spoke the raw language of faith, the one I once erased, eternal gratitude binds me to The One, covering two souls in an awaken infinity of signs pointing to the Divine

A thousand candles glittering with warmth, of trust that never once questioned itself

My breath is tangled with homesickness; home is you, home is the reading marks of last night, leaving a little note of you to say: I was here. 

Coil

she had an anguished knowledge of passion, no experience of love. books rendered a life of alienation to a girl who dreamt & drew a world shaded with literature, fiction as a commonplace; an unfamiliar fascination gloving her everyday, engaging timid fantasies with naive senses, and concentrated pleasure through the burning texts of desire, a vulgar tongue rushing a sentiment playing with hungry fire, the young girl confused an intimate contemplation of minds, with a howling need for a naked touch of bodies, lust illustrating a portrait of love, honest men compromised as characters to a girl trapped in a world of colors, no longer needing to investigate, to break free from the secret life she made.

Like Water

we lose ourselves in this love, in longing for this love, we do not wish to mark our way, to be traced back, because we believe, so earnestly that this love is leading us to much better places, we surrender, completely to a naked thought of union, we are no longer pulled with a need to resist, or to question in circles, instead, we are submerged in devoted trust; that is the gleaming torch that lights the dawn of days.

let go of the expectations of change, rooted entirely in false hope. guard your heart from the evil in some, redirect your focus, dip your feet in the ocean: the essence of who you are, & who you'll become. set free the grasp of negativity. your choices reflect the time of growth you're in, forgive the past for you knew less than you do now. have faith in the journey of knowledge, embrace the journey of the never-ending.

it is true that the beauty pouring from your soul is either rejoiced, by those who celebrate smiling alongside it, or it is envied, by those who spread poisonous toxic energies to oppress it. take your honest intuition as undying affirmation, the unsettling in the stomach is your warning sign. do not be consumed by the bitter fire, breathed by the ones that wish to burn everyone. value your heart, and you'll find it resting in reliant peace and reassurance.


think over your intentions, iron away the contradictions, surrender to the flow of the universe, when you give, do so fully and genuinely. the whole of your being is the secret garden you need to nurture, listen to your desiring heart more often. be patient for the ache of today, will surely be washed away as tomorrow's wisdom.
