take me where the light is gentle
barely waking the world
where shadows stretch
like whispered secrets
and the air holds its breath
skin glowing in the hush
between night and day
open without shame
hands tracing
the quiet promise of morning
slow and deliberate
like a vow
spoken without words
touch me
in this fragile light
where everything feels new
and everything is possible
where the warmth of your breath
presses softly against my skin
and time slows to the rhythm
of our joined heartbeats
hold me here
in the light that drapes us
like a secret
and let me melt
into the soft edges
of dawn’s embrace
Love this!!!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Braden! Thank you 🤗
You’re welcome!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Beautiful imagery peppered throughout. To be transported to a world based on idyllic sentiment within 31 lines is quite the achievement.
I love that the beginning seemed to be a painting of a beautiful scene of nature. But, as I read i understood it was a deep metaphor for a loving relationship. Like a comforting embrace with words. A verbal kiss
Your poetry seems to be the window to a beautiful soul.
I think of the sun in all its radiance providing the good times. It’s what it does. It is the sunshine.
But the moon…ah the moon. It appears when the sunshine is gone. But it still shows the best the sun has to offer. The moon doesn’t create. It reflects. In the darkest of times, the moon doesn’t focus on the darkness. It holds on the the light and shares it.
Jenn, you are a moon. Your work is a moon. Your love is a moon.
Never stop shining through your darkness.
Michael, your words have truly moved me. What a beautiful and profound reflection on the relationship between the sun and the moon. I love the way you describe the moon as a keeper of light, holding onto what it has received and offering it back when the world needs it most.
To be seen in that way, as someone who reflects love, hope, and light even through difficult moments, is incredible. Thank you for recognizing the heart behind my work and for reminding me that even in the quieter, darker moments, there is still something worth sharing.
Your kindness and your words are a light of their own. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a meaningful message. It means more than you know.
This work is sweetly peaceful, a bit like a poetic lullaby. I loved it! Beautiful writing, and thank you so much for sharing with us. pp
Thank you so much for your sweet words. I appreciate you so much!
This truly is a soft powerful kind of beauty. The feeling it invokes inside of me is warmth, rest, and safety. A kind of power that is vulnerable and truly unmoved. I appreciate you so much! And I really fucking love this one so much in particular! A wicked title, added with a wicked flow, and then a wicked beautiful human being who is moving the pen, makes this indeed an absolute gem in my eyes! This writing is a stunning masterpiece, because YOU are a stunning masterpiece! 💕🌹
