This thing between us is powerful.
Immensely palpable, nearly tangible.
I think I can actually strum the
string that pulls us together.
It seems to keep us tethered
even when we’re miles apart.
And in those moments we share the
same space, we explode without
breaking into a million pieces as this
thing also inexplicably keeps us whole.
Category: Love Notes
Feel
I’m in awe of the way you make me feel so
Needed • to require (someone) because they are essential.
Wanted • to have a desire to have or wish for (someone).
Appreciated • to recognize the full worth of (someone).
Special • better, greater, or different from what is usual.
I hope and pray that I’ll, at the very least,
come close to making you feel the same.
Because you are so deserving of receiving
every ounce of the good you continuously
pour into me so willing and altruistically.
Truth
I trust you because you’ve given me
unbridled truths from the very start.
Truths about the ugliest parts of you,
brave truths about your experiences,
and continuous truths about how you
feel as you navigate blindly through
the dimensions of our connection.
All of it has given me the freedom
to display my blossoming emotions and
express my wild desires without shame.
You’ve provided me a safe space
to both be and explore myself and
the beauty of that is the fucking truth!
Reciprocity
I think you loved the way
I loved you more than you
actually loved me or yourself
and that type of reciprocity
was absolutely unsustainable.
Discover
I don’t want the heavy responsibility
that lingers with completing you.
I’d much rather you meet me whole.
So we can simply water the other,
instead of draining one another.
We were never meant to find our half
We’re whole beings simply longing to
discover the parts of us others see.
