#poets on love
“And I hope that the love you’re searching for feels like the first ray of sun hitting your face.”
- g.d (the sun)
“I want to love you between my sheets, baby. Shower you with kisses and leave marks where nobody can see them. I want to be the one that makes you see the stars and the moon. Be the one who knows what you like and how you like it. The one who knows what makes you smile like that.Be the one you seek out at night for more than just a hug. I want to be more and be forever. I want to be yours baby, forever and ever. I want to be the one you love between the sheets.”
- g.d (sheets)
“I hope to love with the same abundance I choose to read. Endlessly and wildly.”
- g.d
“I told him I was too me to be a part of his world. He smiled and caressed my cheek, his lips hovering over mine as he whispered, “and that’s why I love you so much baby, you’re everything I’ve ever dreamed of.””
- g.d (love me for me)
A glass frame of mine.
A glass frame of mind.
Staring in at a stranger
Stranger staring back
My mind as good as shattered
Beauty scarred with cracks
A reflective type of window.
A respective type of window.
Distorted truth
Claimed it’s credibility like a crook
Hidden behind a lie
Can’t get back the toll it took
I watched the sun rise
saw the light hit your eyes
and smiled at your beauty
I saw you stumble out of bed
so many thoughts in your head
and go about your day
I watched you walk back in
your hand on my chin
and you kissed me hello
I saw the moon shine
more reflection in your eyes
I smiled, this is home.

And I stood in the tall grass
that lined the beach
looking at the depth before me
The expanse of ocean
and its movement
I watched the waves meet the shore
with force
I wondered what it meant to be so sure of yourself
I wondered what it meant to be vulnerable
to let others see my fury
my sorrow
and my power
and to not be afraid they would leave me
I wondered what it meant to be secure
I’d never known that feeling

You stay because you love them.
And they tell you they love you.
Because you want to believe it’s somewhere deep in there— and maybe it is.
But not enough.
Not in the way you need.

You tried to kiss me and I pushed you away. You don’t get to toy with my heart anymore.
MK Ireland 261 : over
You were everything I knew would hurt me, yet I still fell for you anyway.
MK Ireland #256 : fuck boy
One thing I’ve learned:
Everything hurts worse at night.
Go to sleep my love, things will be clearer in the morning.

Drunken Stargazing
I was hoping I’d find you here
Throwing back a gallon of beer
Sitting upon the shingles,
Housed by the star speckled sky
My chest burned alight
With a coil of emotions—
Pity,
Heartache,
Pity—
Fear
I don’t quite remember when
You began transferring your beer,
Pouring cans into milk jugs
As you grew out your hair
—You had also lost ten pounds
Sweated out under the weight
Of your circumstantial life
I beg of you,
Cry your troubles into my shirt
I’ll adorn myself with your tears,
Your alcoholic perfume,
Your subtle guise,
And the brunt
Of your star-misted eyes
