Holy

With you I would sin,

In all of the best ways-

Take me to Church, 

Every single day-

Oh my God, 

You're a sight,

A real fucking Saint,

Baby, you're Holy,

You're all that I crave.

I'm down on my knees,

You're watching me pray- 

Moving my mouth,

"Good girl," you would say-

Praising your body,

I'm building my Faith,

Singing hymns with your lips-

Your moans they escape.

Confess on the days,

That I'm a "Bad Girl",

"Forgive me," I'd say,

Cleansed soul in the works,

Drink you up quick, 

As I quench my thirst

I read from your scripture,

A journey unfurls 

Like the wine made from rain,

Your nectar consumed,

Like the apple by Eve,

Taste your delicate fruit,

A ritual made,

In this Eden of ours,

Awake as we study,

The millions of stars-

Let's take our sacred love, 

Redemption is here,

Bring me closer to Heaven,

As you whisper in my ear-

You're an Angel,

I know,

As our bodies transcend-

You're love's fucking holy,

I need it,

Amen.

75 Poems

Seventy-five,

Typed out,

Thought out,

Words that poured out-

Poems,

For you. 

Not including the hand written love letters,

The dozens of pages of journal entries,

The poetry we make when our bodies melt into one another.

Nine months,

Since you found me,

Since our first words exchanged,

Since you intrigued me with your energy-

Six months,

Of truly knowing you,

Of soaking up your energy,

Of falling deeper each day,

Of getting lost in all that is, you.

One hand written book,

Of every poem I've written you,

Writing until my hand cramps up,

But my heart overflows-

My final muse,

The world will know it someday.

Thousands,

Of passionate kisses,

Of moments shared,

Of smiles that graced our lips-

Of memories made,

Both big and small-

Your laughter is infectious, 

Making me spiral on my own-

Your love is:

Gentle,

Sweeter than the most pure honey,

Assertive, 

You make it clear what you want-

Playful,

Hours and hours of getting caught up in our sexual chemistry, exploring realms we haven't ever explored before.

Mindful,

You are constantly making sure I am safe, physically and emotionally 

Charming,

Damn, the way you look at me with those beautiful eyes

Honest,

Our communication is unmatched- something I know we both appreciate immensely 

Magnetic,

We are drawn to one another in a way neither of us can fully put into words. A pull so strong,  that we both acknowledge we have never felt it before- a force we can't deny. So here we are at the start of our journey, ready and eager as we start to dive in.

My love,

I will write you poems until my hands no longer work, if you'll let me.

And then,

I'll use my voice until I can no longer speak,

And I'll say it with my eyes in the moments where my voice escapes me-

I'm in awe with how we've found one another,

And I can't wait to see our future unfold.

A Mother's Love

 You'll never get to meet her,

In the ways I wish you could-

But you always tell me that you meet her through me,

Each and every day.

Through my love, my kindness, my nurturing energy-

My eyes, my stories of her, all of the parts of her, that made me.

How I wish you could experience her smile, feel how contagious her laugh was, experience her unconditional love-

But you'll only ever feel it,

Through me,

A conduit.

I've told her so much about you,

I've shared my hopes, 

My dreams,

And my deepest feelings.

I know she listens, and loves from the other side-

But sometimes,

Tears flow, because I wish it was all tangible.

In those moments, you hold me.

You kiss away my tears, 

You give me the love and support I've needed for four years now,

In a way nobody else ever could.

So lately,

I've asked her-

To visit you in your dreams...

Many times I've asked her,

But I always say "When she's ready, mom. No sooner, no later, but when she's ready." 

And this morning,

You woke-

Rolled over with a sparkle in your eyes, 

A gentle smile on your face.

"I had a dream last night..." 

"About?" I ask

"I couldn't see her face, but it was your mom."

My heart stopped,

My words caught in my throat,

A few quiet tears welled in my eyes.

You continue;

You tell me that the three of us were in a kitchen together,

It was filled with laughter,

"You were just laughing so much" 

I could feel the happiness as you explained it.

My heart full,

Knowing that the time is now,

And that she finally made herself present to you. 

That, in and of itself is a sign for me-

One that puts my heart at ease,

Knowing that my trust in this journey,

Has been worth every minute. 

Cosmos

 Mesmerized by the Northern Lights in the sky,

A mirage of the grandeur of all that is.

Lost in the Cosmos with you.

Dipping our toes in the Milky Way,

Sun bathing on Mars,

Ice Cream on Pluto,

Earth now seems so far-

You grab my hand and spin me around to watch the Moon rise on the horizon, 

We share a kiss that defies gravity-

I don't ever want to come down,

Let's create our own reality-

Float with me,

In a realm far away-

One where our worries have faded away,

Dressed in just the light from the stars,

As we glisten and sparkle,

The future is ours. 

Amore

 A beautiful night, 

An early morning -

Drenched in passion,

Our souls buzz

You, 

My love, 

Have captured my heart-

In its entirity. 

I can see that you know it,

And I see that I've captured yours.

That moment we shared,

As you left for work-

The smile on your face,

As those words danced behind your lips,

Begging to be released-

Was simply beautiful. 

Your smile,

My giggle,

Your laughter realizing I just read your mind with such ease,

Babe, 

Its written all over your face,

And I'm sure you see it on mine;

Let me taste your lips,

For they're the keepers of words unspoken-

The protectors of something sacred,

The holders of our knowing.

Little Moments

 It's the way the morning sun peeks through my bedroom curtains and kisses your smiling cheeks as you sleep in my bed-

Bundled and dreaming, I tickle your back.

The way your curls so delicately caress your face when you lean over me to kiss me...

Grabbing my face with your hands, and gazing into my eyes like you've never seen a sight like me before.

You make me feel like one of the wonders of the world, simply by the way you look at me.

It's those moments I catch you looking at me, like that, I find this knowing.

It's the smell of morning coffee that we share side by side, and the taste of coffee soaked kisses that lead to passionate morning sex.

Our bodies pressed so tightly into one another we can barely catch our breath,

Sweat dripping down our backs as we find ourselves in the most colorful fever dream.

It's the little notes we leave eachother; gentle reminders that we have one another - 

It's how many times a day we each say "I can't get enough of you" - while we know we will never have to, because our presence will have no end... yet we crave each other like the most addicting drug.

I suppose love and lust are wildly addicting-

And if that's so, I'd stay addicted to you for an eternity, 

Time and time again. 

It's you taking photos of me while I shower, while we play, or while I'm doing the most mundane things- 

If only I could see myself through your eyes- I often wonder what's on your mind,

And you respond "in time"

It's the moments you feed me food with your hands, such a small yet intimate gesture of affection-

I feel so cared for- 

It's when you wrap me so tightly in your arms, that I'm almost certain you'll never let go-

Please, don't ever let go- 

It's when my fingers trace your lips, your face, your spine- 

I'm capturing every inch of you and engraving it in my memory so that it becomes a part of my being-

You are slowly becoming just that,

A part of me. 

It's your laughter that triggers mine, 

Which triggers yours,

Which triggers mine-

A cycle we often find ourselves in,

I could live in those moments for as long as you'd let me.

It's how you don't let me walk on the inside of the street,

It's how you're so protective over me-

It's every time you're there for me-

It's all of these little moments,

That have me hooked-

Quite the feat

GS & NN

 "Let's carve our name in a tree" 

You say excitedly -

"Let's do it!" - I quip back

Your eyes get big with wonder,

Like a little kid about to do something forbidden,

"Seriously?" You didn't think I'd agree-

"Right now, let's go!" I grab your hand and we head out to find the perfect tree on this beautiful Spring night. 

The stars watch over us,

Our guides,

The moon, 

Our light-

We find the perfect tree, 

Smooth and inviting-

We giggle,

Cars whiz by, oblivious to our masterpiece in the making. 

Nice and large,

Deep and permanent-

A beautiful scar we create- 

One that will be seen for years to come.

The air is light and playful,

Just like our spirits, 

A bond carved deeper into the universe
