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.
Connection
Love and connection…
Two things all humans crave.
But what if love is just a word
we use to describe connection?
What if the intangible connection
we often feel from the very start
was love all along and the fear
of vulnerability halts expression?
And if connection is love
then it all makes sense right?
The way some connections
make our souls dance joyously
while others feel so temporary,
the kind we fall in and out of so easily.
Maybe it’s because those connections
were never deep, just a spark we still
called love because connection is love
and love is connection all the while.
Have you ever experienced a connection
so strong, as deep as the ocean even,
that your soul whispered ‘I love you’
to their’s over and over from day one?
Lyrics
Lately I seem to find you in all
the lyrics to my favorite songs.
Were you there all along or is it
the way you love me so beautifully
freeing my heart to hear you in them?
