“It’s the simple things creating pockets of serenity in a world of uncertainty.”

I say five more minutes but what I really mean is never leave me.

Remember when Hershey was the only kiss we were looking for.

We may be sweet but that is no invitation for taste.

Don’t shame a woman for speaking her truth because it should be universal.

My mind is the double helix that twists and turns around my voice.

Longing made a home in my body.

A year ago we battled atoms to see each other – spaced apart but still so close together in heart.

I could write another love poem but my metaphors get mixed like the drinks I had the night that more than our paths crossed – strongly.

The stars can’t compete with your glow so don’t let the world take it away.

Our love is that light up every room star.

Tied up by my heartstrings, I can’t break free from feelings – the restraints too tight, the love too strong.

But once your eyes met mine, addiction blossomed and I was undone – petals unfurling toward the light you held.

Your eyes: a tender illustration of love, how you paint affirmations across my bare skin.

Write me a poem in Morse code, goosebumps on my skin and lines on your neck.

Your legs twitch in your sleep like you’re running to me in your dreams.

Look at our story: It is enduring.

What makes you different is what makes you beautiful.

Nothing is more simple than greatness; indeed, to be simple is to be great.

He is so rich, he has no room to shit.

The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.

Keep your mind fixed on what you want in life: not on what you don’t want.

Live simply so others may simply live.

I am not poor. Poor are those who desire many things.

Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!
