This heaviness inside my bones tells me, I still carry the weight of loving you.
ALMA-MAY NOAThis heaviness inside my bones tells me, I still carry the weight of loving you.
ALMA-MAY NOAAnd all I wish is that your happiness would reach beneath the surface of your skin, grow deep roots, and bloom.
ALMA-MAY NOAI breathe out light pleasing, soft, and warm – I’m still learning to breathe out fire.
ALMA-MAY NOAHow is it that I can drink from your lips and still crave? More and more, and even more of you.
ALMA-MAY NOAWanting you has been a thirst I have not been able to quench.
ALMA-MAY NOAWalls and brick have never felt like home, the way your gentle bones do.
ALMA-MAY NOAI constantly wonder if I’m enough, do you? Tell me I’m not alone in my insufficiency.
ALMA-MAY NOAHealing was not found in mending my brokenness, but in finding peace among the pieces.
ALMA-MAY NOAAnd you have fast become my weakness, even as you remain my source of strength.
ALMA-MAY NOAI see the pain you hide inside you, those shadows that haunt your eyes, let tears of liquid darkness flow until space is made for light.
ALMA-MAY NOAHer thoughts are poetry, sheer beauty to behold, pay attention when she gives you a glimpse.
ALMA-MAY NOAYou were consumed in running away from yourself, and I was just another way for you to get lost.
ALMA-MAY NOAHold me even closer than your shadow holds the dark; leave me in no doubt your arms are home.
ALMA-MAY NOAClasp me in your warm embrace, let me feel the love your eyes so boldly promise.
ALMA-MAY NOATo be looked at and not found wanting —how beautiful to be enough.
ALMA-MAY NOAShadows may haunt your steps, but you will keep walking.
ALMA-MAY NOA
