Snuggle
Believe it or not, snuggling is very important, Physical touch can be hard for a lot of people, and that's okay, Studies have shown that 94 percent of couples who regularly snuggle tend to report feeling happier in their relationship, compared to the 68 percent of couples who don't snuggle.

The Daredevil Trail
Morning comes cold upon St. Anthony, the sea breathing mist across her sleeping shore, and from the earth a staircase rises, four hundred seventy-six steps counted like beads upon some rosary, each one a confession carved into the mountain's granite hide.

sister sunlight
achingly rusted bones bend out of bed the weight of a full skull sits heavy in my head loaded minds roll all the dice while I slip my body of flesh onto the floor eyes closed I feel it pour sunlight streams through spotted window panes roasting my marrow like a marshmallow over open flames sister sunlight sparkles her radiant rays every morning she slides a folded paper note into my pocket promising that today is a new day while sleeping minds get cleansed in moonlight the searing sun prepares her masterpiece through molten mantles she shines only on the other side my fragile metatarsals will never make their way to her yet from miles away she moves me moves my world stops every morning to have a spot of tea with my mind sipping gently cooing praises for my waking demanding that I understand with all my heart and soul that darkness does not last forever and neither will I but I am here now with her alive
