love

it was wonderful
to feel
like we used
to feel
just the two
of us
together
for an
evening

love

the water
the candles
the thought
the time
the kisses

my love

love

it's absurd
to think
I'm not
interested
in what
you're
interested
in

our lives
our interests
lay
all around
us
intertwined

love

There's music in my head

Heart-shaped melodies of red

If this is just the start I can't wait to hear the end

The hours come and go

As we lay wrapped up tight in your silver glow

I've never been this content to "be"

Sticky Sweet (Erin McCarley, Jamie Kenney)

love

the best time of the day
by far
is the
quiet
dark
evening
on the couch
together

love

I haven't really
been at my best
the past while
but the best part
of it all
has been
my cheek
on your neck
and your hand
on my back

love

I am tired, Beloved,
of chafing my heart against
the want of you;
of squeezing it into little inkdrops,
And posting it.
~Amy Lowell, "The Letter"

well, I'm not really tired,
but I thought this was
a lovely sentiment

love

it would
be easy
to say
I've failed
miserably
at reaching
my goal
of 365
but not utterly
perhaps
the truer
gesture
is to pick up
where
I left off
and
keep
going
