Feral

March 21st, 2025

I’m not sure why I did it again
But I held my hand out to a stray
Who’s never known love
Only knows how to run away
I try to get closer
I try to gain their trust
They’re skittish in nature
So I try to readjust
Inching to close the distance
Maybe show them affection
But they retreat away
From any form of connection

I Love The Way

October 30th, 2011

I love the way you hypnotize me with your eyes
the way you bite my lip
the way I feel when you grab me by my hips
I love the way I feel wrapped in your arms
how you laugh at me when I yawn
the words on my back you had once drawn
I love hearing your voice
or seeing your name light up my phone
the way you make me feel like I’m not alone
I love the way you call me the woman you’re in love with
the words that make me melt
the way you make me feel like no one else

Note: This might be the first time a poem I posted from the past lined up with the same day I posted it! Thank you all for your support while I posted some of my writing from when I was 19. I will resume posting 2025 next week!

Fall

September 15th, 2011

In your arms
I’ll close my eyes
We’ll fall asleep
It’ll be alright
Waking up
In my favorite place
Your lips touch mine
And I see your face
You made me fall
This is your fault
I love you
You have my heart
