Again

I said I wouldn’t

But I did.

That hope I tried

To refuse,

It flooded in.

And now here I am,

Here I stand

Scared and still

That you will

Break my heart again.

Breathe In

Breathe in,

Breathe out.

Let in,

I drown.

I want that love.

I survive without it.

The kiss at night

Within the silence.

Brush your hand

Against this soul

Do you feel

The cracks so old?

Remove the words

The unsaid and spoken.

Listen to the heartbeat

Please, take action.

Thump.

Flutter.

Still.

Together.
