Loving Him (via Yours Truly)

Kiss Me

I know it sounds hasty. But baby, The idea Of having your lips pressed to mine Sends shivers down my spine. If you feel the desire to push me against the wall. You have my permission. Just don’t let me fall. Wrap me in your arms. Steal my breath. Kiss me until there is nothing left. And if I accidentally dig my nails in your back too deep. You’re going to have to forgive me. It’ll be our secret to keep. The moment I ache for. When can I get you alone? I’m hoping we’ll both have new marks to be shown. Come closer to me than ever before. I promise I will return the favor. And if I tangle my hands through your hair. Just know it’s because you have my heart ensnared. When you feel the urge to trail your lips over my skin. Don’t resist, darling. I’m yours to binge.

Sleep Deprived Paradise

I don’t want to sleep. Yes, I know I’ll be weak. But the idea of counting sheep Is not one I plan to keep. When I shut my eyes I only see your face. Listen closely and I can hear your laugh. Making me forget all the horrors of my past. Dear, I know I sound insane. But unfortunately pretending is the only thing that takes away the pain. My heart is bound in chains. I stay awake at night. Because that’s when my imagination takes flight. And I can pretend you are with me. Whispering softly in my ear. Telling me you love me. With you there is nothing to fear. This sleep deprived paradise. Has become quite the drug. I find myself craving you. I won’t be satisfied with just a hug. So when we are together. And you accidentally brush against me. Don’t be alarmed when I jolt forward. From the one sided electricity.

Your Eyes

Brown eyes were never my favorite. They didn’t remind me of the ocean. Or the green forest floor. Nothing memorable. Reminding me of waves lapping against a sandy shore. But that all changed. The day my eyes met yours.

Love Letter

I tend to write letters. That are destined to never be read. But today I found myself writing to you. And to my surprise. The only thing that flowed out of the pen. Was a hundred I love You’s Repeating over and over again. -GA (via Yours Truly)// Too bad you’ll never see it.

Fire and Ice

She was a fire. Surrounded by flames. He was ice. Soothing and made to entice. Everyone she trusted scoffed and turned. Leaving her to snuggle against the frost. Not realizing the ultimate cost. She felt comforted in knowing that with him, She would never be burned. But Fire and Ice was never meant to mix. Her embers sizzled as he held her in his arms. Vowing to protect her from any more harm. But when the morning came. She screamed in fright. She destroyed the one she loved. Because her flames burned too bright. -GA (via Yours Truly)// I’m a hazard to everyone I love.

Calvary

They asked me if I am even saved, Followed by the first time their lips ever dared to form the shape of my name. Even though their eyes are so quick to follow, The curves of my body. Their words are like steel, Cutting my flesh, Until there is nothing left, For them to devour. They say I am best served at the altar, Bending over backwards, To be slaughtered, With double edged tongues. But I suppose, What they don’t know, Is that the bruises on my knees, Are from crawling, To Calvary, Where the Lord of Lords, Bled, And died for me. -GA

Oxygen

There is a certain madness, To loving you. Trying to catch my breath, Every time, You enter the room, Even though, You are not my oxygen. -GA// But damn, it sure feels like it sometimes.

Your Lips

Sometimes, I wish, I could look at your lips, And not see poetry. -GA// But I'm never going to be that lucky.

Fly Away

It’s the shuffle in my walk, As I approach the room, And try not to glue my eyes to the clock, That hangs on the wall, And records the seconds that mock me. It’s the speed of my heart, How I fear it’ll fall apart, If it beats to the rhythm, Inside my head. Because that’s when it spreads, Until all I see is red, And everyone I love, Is dead. It’s the moment I see, His arms embracing a girl who’s not me. Whispering into her lips, The same promise I believed. Foolishly trying to decided if sleep, Will wash away the pain. Despite knowing that the answer, Is never that simple. That my mind will only twist the dreams until they are the same fucked up symbol, Of my insanity. It’s the days I stay in bed, Wrapped up in the sheets and pretend, That I’m dead, Because I am already tired of living. But I am only at the beginning, Of my life. It’s the decisions I make. The chances I didn’t take. Buried underneath all the feelings that I Can’t shake off. It’s the fear of time, How one day, There will only be goodbye, But how I, Will be left behind, Staring at my ceiling, And wondering what it would be like To fly. -GA
