THE LOVE I ONCE KNEW...😦

The love I once knew.

I knew love,
The one that had me awake at 3am,
With butterflies plaguing my very being.
With vivid imaginations of a soul not mine but also mine.


I dreamt constantly of kisses and hugs so fierce,
For a minute, It was okay to place my heart at the right side of his.
To give it up to him because,
I knew love.

As all things come to an end,
So did the love I thought I knew.
But as the purpose of life is death as death is life,
I found love again.

And it was like snow in the dew,
Smiling was no longer a novelty,
I wanted a human like my lungs crave for air.
He left his scent on my skin from the kisses carefully placed,
On my neck, and on my shoulder blades.
As if marking me as his, but it was okay.
I knew love again.

He would wrap me in his arms like I provided warmth the world couldn't give,
He'd find reasons to touch me,
He'd smile at me like my eyes held the sun and the moon
And I was the sky they sat on.

I knew love,
Love could be 6ft
Love smells like home.
Love is home.
