We are built on a foundation of facades.
AMANDA KARCHWe are built on a foundation of facades.
AMANDA KARCHAn angel’s soft breath coating the grounds, a gentle caress wakes us now.
AMANDA KARCHYour legs twitch in your sleep like you’re running to me in your dreams.
AMANDA KARCHMy mind is the double helix that twists and turns around my voice.
AMANDA KARCHWill you wither or will you thrive when the sun hides behind clouds?
AMANDA KARCHThe monsters are no longer under our beds.
AMANDA KARCHOur love is that light up every room star.
AMANDA KARCHBut once your eyes met mine, addiction blossomed and I was undone – petals unfurling toward the light you held.
AMANDA KARCHA year already separates us; I don’t want miles between us too.
AMANDA KARCHWrite me a poem in Morse code, goosebumps on my skin and lines on your neck.
AMANDA KARCHAll I have ever wanted is to rid my mind of the demons that still trespass, despite all attempts to guard the walls.
AMANDA KARCHRemember when Hershey was the only kiss we were looking for.
AMANDA KARCHThose lips on mine: Not I want you, but I need your kisses.
AMANDA KARCHStars map my freckles and all I want is you tracing constellations on my skin.
AMANDA KARCHLet them run wild like the free spirits they are.
AMANDA KARCHI could write another love poem but my metaphors get mixed like the drinks I had the night that more than our paths crossed – strongly.
AMANDA KARCH
