buy me a coffee
I have so much love in me that I would like to cry.

buy me a coffee
My legs tremble when I think about your skin
I want to taste you
Dipping my tongue into your sweetness
Squeezing your hand where the other holds my head
I dream of you often
I long for your skin against mine
Deep inside me there’s a visceral need to be close to you
I love your proximity in every form
Want
There’s a deep seated desire in my soul
It alights in my low belly, pulling downwards through my chest
You make me my heart throb
I want to kiss along your shoulders
Pull you in by your waist
Kiss you deeply between your thighs
It’s an ever lingering desperate need to be close to you
I’m never not wanting for you
love is the fabric of the universe.

Soup
I want to make soup with you.
I want to dance around you in the kitchen as you cut vegetables.
You’re so cute, did you know that?
I want to carefully guide the spoon to your mouth, letting you taste test the broth.
Careful it’s hot!
I want to clean the pot when we’re done, and hand it to you to dry.
I want to go to bed next to you, with full stomachs, and full hearts, and a familiar warmth settling in my chest.
I want to make soup with you.
Isn't it amazing that we have a preferred side of the bed and then we meet someone whose side of the bed is the other one and when we sleep together its perfect. And then we invented hand-holding that serves no real purpose other than being close and bring comfort. And then maybe we meet someone that eats the parts of the food we don't like. Isn't it amazing how we keep finding new ways to fit ourselves in and around the people we love?
I love you (I know your favourite song, and colour, and food, and book). I love you (I know your mannerisms and your phrases and gestures). I love you (I know how to cheer you up and lighten your mood and when to simply hold you). I love you (I know the way you love and the way you want to be loved, and how the two overlap like a flutter of wings at the sky).
Intimacy isn't just about sex. It's having heart-to-hearts, going on dates, dancing, cuddling, sharing childhood memories, thoughts, fears, dreams & hopes for the future. It's uncontrollable laughter, direct eye contact & feeling each other without touching–it's exchanging energy
let me see you and stay

Love tastes like…
Watermelon chapstick and minty toothpaste
Chocolate chip cookies stored in red Tupperware
Cold fingers pressed against warm lips
Bitter coffee and whole milk late into the morning
Warmth, and heat, and sweet wetness
Pizza rolls that scorch the inside of my mouth because your microwave never allows for a happy medium
Skin, salty and moist with exertion and heat
Leftover soup and unsalted saltines
Whipped cream and blueberry pie
You.
You are love. And I taste it with every kiss.
“Tear me apart”
I say it, and there’s not a fear that you’d take it the wrong way. There’s a security in knowing you’d caress where others have left gashes and scars, in watching as you cradle each piece of me within your palms and hold them with care. “Tear me apart.” And you smile and shake your head, peeling me into pieces to be savored instead of discarded. You ravish the parts of me better left to the birds, and make me feel worthy. Being torn apart by you isn’t scary, because you’d never tear. You wouldn’t.
The taste of you sits heavy on my tongue. I could die a thousand times and still your sweetness would linger.

of knowing (and loving anyways)
In the dark of the night I think about you
How your hand fits into mine
The smell of the nape of your neck
The way your grown out hair tickles my nostrils
I feel your ribs under my arms
And your leg between my thighs
On nights we’re apart… I sleep
But never can I sleep so hard and so deep
As when I’m wrapped around you
