17 Syllables of Truth


when i think of love
i miss the passionate sounds
his skin on my skin

when i think of love
i miss the way he held me
he saw right through me

when i think of love
all the late night visits and
anticipation

when i think of love
i used to wonder if his
heart belonged to me

when i think of love
and the letting go of him
i’m at complete peace

when i think of love
i know with certainty that
HIS heart is faithful

This is very beautiful & deeply relatable. Something about the 'skin on my skin' line became more than visual...it was visceral.

When I think of love, my vision turns to gold. I tend to grin & that grins tends to grow into the most secretive, sensuous, scintillating & succulent smile inside my soul.

One.

Love is deeply relatable and never-ending...Oh blessed are we :-)

Love and smiles
