Can’t
I can’t just say that I love you.
I’m in need of word far greater
to identify this kind of feeling.
Its like the moon finally got to kiss
the sun without igniting into flames.
Like God himself picked me up and
gently placed me in your ocean yet
made sure I could still breathe
while drowning in our existence.
So I can’t just say that I love you.
I’m in need of a word far greater.
Distance
I’m learning to appreciate
the distance between us.
Because if you were near
my heart would suffocate you.
It knows no other way to love.
Language
In awe of the way you speak
my love language so fluently.
But I’m patiently waiting on
you to tap into that vulnerable
space you seem to run from.
I want you to trust enough to
teach me your love language
without fear of me doing
anything but understanding,
speaking & loving you fluently.
Affection
Your affection astonishingly
and synonymously feels like
you’re hearing and seeing me
protecting and supporting me
studying and teaching me
feeding and savoring me
unveiling and covering me
feeling and loving me then
drinking and watering me.
