A poem...as yet untitled...inspired by Emily King...and Love...
I need you to wrap me up, hold me close,and breathe into my ear until I feel safe enough to speak these words hiding behind these sleepy eyes of mine
If i had one wish, it would be to stand here, close to you, like this, for every single moment we could spare
Dazzled by the conversation that floats between your hands and mine
and the nameless something special that keeps us rooted there
I would wish to feel warm with you
solid here, creating the notions that we could be together
Like this
for as long as words are able to melt onto a page
I need you to help me settle in to the space between my desires and dreams
and create monuments of hope that our laughter will be enough to eliminate the doubt
and we will be here
just us
in our world
warm
sleepy
content
protected from the rainy day swirling outside out window
Can you
Wrap your arms around me and just for a moment
Take it all away
