a mention of you and i am
beside myself
cradling the memories of your
demureness, the versatility of you, modest, yet
effervescent when you had to be, i

inner child, whose innocence had been
jailed from the shackles of society
kept in hiding, i exhumed myself through
loving you, and loving you was the
maiden voyage to loving myself, my
oxygen was returned by you but stolen with every glance
playing with you felt like blinking
quietly, i had crossed out the
ransom notes written on my skin, wanting to be
seen, in all my
totality, you were the one to
unveil me and
validate my soul
with just your touch, the
x's and o's
you once gave

I write love poems about the girl who has a hold over my heart and my life in such a way that neither are my own anymore. The girl I would choose over and over and over again. I love her, and that is the beginning and end of everything.
