Flushed skin
from nightmares within
Curled up into a ball
Shaking the demons from my brain
Hunger for you
to help me chase them away
To take hold of me
and make me forget
Lay your hands on me
and hunt them with kisses
along my skin
Just lay here with me
and make me feel real

Never
Never underestimate me for being weak
because I dare to show you my bones
my bare soul
my heart without walls
even when I hunger for your strong arms
Never mistake me being fragile
for being broken
because I wear the scars of my own battles
show you the cracks of my being
It makes me who I am
and it gives me strength
even though I’m vulnerable for every word you whisper
and every glance in my direction
You Have Me
My soul is reaching out to touch your words
Feeling your heart through every letter
Scared and excited to brush my heart against your beautiful soul
Dancing a wordless love dance through sentences
filled with so much more then the words they contain
Forever fascinated and under your spell
You have me
Mesmerized
The glimpses you show me
keep me mesmerized
My heart races..
can this be?
Am I falling ever more into your spell?
Lost in you, I’m home
The Dark
Waking from a nightmare
I want to hide in your arms
but can’t find you beside me
Closing my eyes
and wish for your soothing words
I lie in the dark
Trying to find comfort
Knowing you’re under the same stars
looking up at the same moon
Our forever companion
But still worlds apart
Beautiful Ache
My words fall from my mind
like soft caresses along your skin
Tasting your every thought
making my touch ache for you
My body trembles
for every line you write
Biting my lip in anticipation
I treasure your every breath
against my soul
I hunger for your heated gaze
sliding along the lines of my poems
Telling you more then I ever dare
My beautiful ache
My delicious Muse
Come touch my heart
that is waiting for you
Letters of Glass
Hold my words
Because they carry my heart
In letters of glass
Fragile and naked
Showing a window to my soul
The darkness inside you
Doesn’t scare me away
It makes me want to reach out
Test my own boundaries
And hold you
Not saving, but just be

Sweetest Little Thing
The depth of your soul amazes me
with the beauty
lying within your heart
The sweetest little thing you do
takes my breath away
And even though you’re not
convinced of your own beauty
I’ll believe for you
Your action shout out to my soul
I adore you
Phantom of a Wish
Your words gentle en mixed
hide a world of pain
Sneak their way into my heart
make it ache and swell
The mystery inside your sentences
make me curious and weary
You can possess me completely
but do you want to?
The push and pull
The attraction I feel
Is it there?
or just a phantom of a wish?
One Tiny Light
Soothing words flash over my screen
acknowledging the ache in my heart
The mere existence of you
mends the hole in my soul
The darkness swallowing my happiness
is pierced by one tiny light
shining from within you
straight into my being
How Much Of This Is Us
Writing on every surface
words that can’t describe
all the feelings I have
My chest feels too small
for the heart you made grow
and beat with an erratic beat
Pushing against my inner walls
I’m testing the water outside
my safe zone
Scared as always I try to hide
behind a mask of cool
However will I survive
if this means more to me
then it does to you
How much of this is me
and my dreams
How much of this is us
and reality
Drown Me In Kisses
Take the heaviness of today away
and let me hide under the covers
with you
Drown me in kisses
and let me float
Shivering under your words
Fragile and Strong
