i want to be able to say
that us ending an
intimate night together,
my arm tightly wrapped
around your unclad waist
and your head fitted
snugly beneath my chin,
i really want to say that it
doesn’t solve all our problems
but i can’t seem to remember
what those problems were
i wonder if God understands
or if He thinks me untrue
when my mind wanders toward you
while speaking to Him
we are perfect
but we are a dream
and the only thing
keeping us from
becoming a reality
is the fear that maybe
we won’t last forever
that i had to have you
or I’d die
Anonymous asked: you love asians?
lol.. that, too
maybe i don’t really know
what it means to be in love
but if love is an ocean
then i’ve never sank deeper
than i am at this moment
it’s possible that i never wanted you
to tell me that you loved me
maybe i was scared that
the chase would be over
scared that all these butterflies
trapped inside of my stomach
would go through some sort of
reverse metamorphosis
instead of taking flight
but i had no reason to be afraid
because i love you more today
than i did the night you spoke those words
so maybe i’m in love with loving you
maybe in love is where we belong
and maybe that will never change

i won’t love you
only for your smile
or your green eyes
i won’t love you
just because your voice
makes me want to dream
in the middle of the day
or because your hands
keep me awake
in the middle of the night
you see, all of those things
that i could love about you
aren’t guaranteed to last
so i’ll choose to love you
for love’s sake alone
no matter what i do today
or how much i get accomplished,
if the sun sets
without me having seen you
then i wasted my day
there is this sea of people
who are black or white
or shades of grey
but then there is you
right in the middle
and you’re firebrick red
and robin’s egg blue
you’re a sun-glowed yellow
and you’re twilight lavender
you’re the only color
that’s worth looking at
and you’re the only color
that i can even see
maybe for a day and a night
i could pretend that i might
walk away from her love
and turn my back on
everything that she means to me
but it wouldn’t last long
and i’d just regret having wasted
time trying to appear content
in my solitude
instead of using my time
to love her a little more deeply
