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 NOAIn the pause between your breaths and the space between your heartbeats, I think I heard forever.
ALMA-MAY NOAAll the scars I hide fearfully, you see; counting them carefully with your lips, and telling me they are beautiful.
ALMA-MAY NOAI breathe in the first glimmers of freedom – it tastes of sweet hopefulness.
ALMA-MAY NOAHow easy it was to hide from everything; everything except the truth in your eyes.
ALMA-MAY NOAAnd when I lie broken with my face pressed to the earth – I will look to the cloudless sky, and reach out for it once more.
ALMA-MAY NOAAnd still, she longs for love, when all she knows of it, is how much it scars.
ALMA-MAY NOASeems it’s just too easy to fall in love with absolutely all of you.
ALMA-MAY NOAI want to lay down spread out and be the one to fill all the spaces empty – and occupied by her.
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 NOAShadows may haunt your steps, but you will keep walking.
ALMA-MAY NOAThe light of your love touches me in the hidden depths of my lonely soul. And I know beyond a single doubt, I am safe within your hold.
ALMA-MAY NOAHealing was not found in mending my brokenness, but in finding peace among the pieces.
ALMA-MAY NOAThere is a story to tell in even the mundane, and beauty in the most unsuspecting.
ALMA-MAY NOAToo many times I’ve reached into shallow wells searching for acceptance, and too many times my bucket has come empty.
ALMA-MAY NOAI constantly wonder if I’m enough, do you? Tell me I’m not alone in my insufficiency.
ALMA-MAY NOA
