I could give you the shirt off my back

With my heart up wrapped inside

Because I don’t know how

To take it off my sleeve

I hope it keeps you warm

Because to be honest

My world couldn’t get any colder

Just don’t break my heart

I broke it once before

And it seemed like forever before it healed

Sometimes it feels

As though I need to protect it

But I realized I only hurt those close to me

Because defenses were too high

So here I am again

With my defenses lowered

Giving the shirt of my back

With my heart wrapped up in the sleeve

a note to my younger self

A Poem on Love:

Love is the warm marrow of my bones, the embers made from the tree that grew in the palms of our linked hands.

Love is the feeling of stars placed in the cavity of my chest, plucked out of the black before their bloom of energy.

Love, the word, the breath, the inhale it takes and the exhales it spends to say, is something the flap of flesh in my mouth wants to say until it bleeds the same color as the velvet of my heart.

Writing a poem

Counting lines on my fingers

I look like a fool
