she had this thing about her
where sunlight lived beneath her skin
aged postcards and love letters
were written upon her bones
in the most delicate ink
and chasing daydreams
was her favorite thing to do
because it always leads her
back to him

Polaroid
unspoken moments
printed
ink-stained
and packed away
reminders
of a life
that use to be
where the silence
feels so loud
within the corners
of our story
and time
seems to freeze
the memories
that still remain
inside the frame
of a polaroid
Pieces of me
I hope you find
pieces of me
in the lyrics
of your favorite song
inside the lines
of your favorite book
or in the temporary moments
of fleeting happiness
but most of all
I hope you find me
in the silence of the night
when you close your eyes
and dream
Sunset
Wishes
with every second
that passes
I wish I could hear
the sound of your breath
as you whisper
your love to me
and feel your voice
laying gently upon
the layers of my skin
I wish you knew how deeply
you are etched
into my bones
and that every poem
that flows from my fingers
will find a way to you
in every single lifetime
this universe holds
Silence
it’s the silence between us
that says everything
that we can’t
and how
at any given moment
you and I exist
in a thousand different places
it’s in these moments
that I wish you were here
to undress me
with your words
and caress my fragile heart
Dandelion
as a summer breeze
caresses her face
a part of her
is swept away
with the whispers
of the wind
like a thousand wishes
from a dandelion
she hopes they lead her
back to you
Aurora
I painted you a summer
in a pretty shade of orange
where time
comes in waves
and breaks
the silence of aurora
as dreams are tucked away
in our pockets
and the sun
is the perfect hue of yellow
upon this canvas
I compose
all the pieces of me
inside this picture-perfect frame
Lucidity
all that makes
my flesh and bones
was once an element
of something more
you and I
feel like a spectral dream
where we fell in love
in the quiet moments
that were gone
before we even realized
they were there
Inhale
I inhale
the very life of you
feeling the rush
of euphoria
through my veins
taking me to a place
that I’ve never been
and I know
in that moment
that I love you
with all that I am
the very essence of me
caught up
in every breath
that fills your lungs
