Unconditional Lovers
As a child of a broken home I never grew up with a safe space to talk about emotions. I always tried to be the perfect girlfriend, the perfect wife I never talked much, I kept things surface level. I would just grow tired of the dynamic and move on, rinse, repeat, till I met you. Surface wasn’t enough for You. You need me to come out of the shell I worked so hard to build. Through it all the ugly, the astounding, the masterpieces and the inexcusable outbursts. You loved me through it all. Thank heavens for You.
How magical it is to exist in a universe where love fills the room like beautiful music.
Floating in this time and plane of space, met with you. I fully feeling into my bones,
my heartbeat,
the tiny pulse in the capillaries of my skin,
the dilation of dreamy eyes,
this moment, fleeting yet eternal.
I, completely enveloped in the bliss of you, a bodily warmth that turns to a golden glow. Seeping through the gold lined cracks of the wound heart bathing in its healing light. Each layer replacing the bleeding cuts of denial, betrayal, abandonment and rejection with hope.
The space to air dry my cuts in the golden bandages of you.
My light, green from the furtile grounds of your trail through my soul.
like the sun and land, synergy that allots for life to flourish,
I embark,
mailed away in a promise of faith that a better tomorrow comes.

Disarmament
They say there's no atheism in the foxhole. While I wasn't currently neck-deep in a river of soft sediment, I was still praying to whoever would listen. Why am I doing this again? I would ponder while staring at the device that in no less than a minute could be my undoing. I scanned each and every variable panel and commonplace button as I watched the bright red L.E.D ticker countdown. No wires to cut, no code to put in, there was only one way to stop this infernal machine, and that incurred perfect timing.
