I want you to love me
for what I am able to give,
not for what I have,
or how much pain
I can inflict
just to get you
to stay.

What inspires you to write such amazing poems? I wish I could just put words together and make people feel like you can. That's a true gift.

You are a true gift. Thank you, love. Your words are so warm. And I just.. write! I mean, I write how I feel, how I felt, and how I may feel one day. Sometimes I’ll even write feelings that I may never feel. I just want to get it all out. I don’t want to keep anything trapped inside anymore. I’m tired of holding everything in for the sake of someone else’s feelings.

I am learning how to speak without fear, and without regret, and this is the happiest I’ve ever been.

I remember your voice so vividly,
it still rings in my ears even when
you are gone. It’s the only sound
that has ever helped me
find my way back home.

If I have to,
I will wait for you,
even if that means
having to deal
with loneliness.

For you,
I would take on
anything.

My skin remembers your touch
more than it remembers any other
texture. It yearns for the feeling
of your body against mine.
When I am near you, so badly
I want to press myself
against your being;
our bodies colliding,
almost seeming as if
we are one.
But there is something
inside of me that holds myself
in my place, and I wait
for your hands to come
and find me. But when
they don’t end up searching
for what I have to offer,
I have to go on the hunt for myself,
and show you exactly what it is
that I have been looking for;
the tender feeling of your embrace.

And everything seemsto revolve around you.

And everything seems
to revolve around you.

I miss the wayyou used to love me;like it was somethingthat came so naturally.

I miss the way
you used to love me;
like it was something
that came so naturally.
