Today I am in my feelings.
Trying to understand the meanings.
My thoughts are weighing heavily.
I try to dissect them carefully.
I won’t let my feelings explode.
I’m tending to them on my own.
Words are all scrambled in my mind.
The sky is storming, it matches mine.
It’s odd,
I usually have the right thing to say.
I just don’t today.
I have many pieces of art to explore on me.
Each one of them tells their own little story.
Because music is something I feel heavy.
I have a treble clef with a pulse that’s steady.
And for all the battles I have faced.
On my bicep ‘Warrior’ is imperfectly placed.
I believe that nature holds a beautiful power.
So on me you’ll find lavender, a lotus, and a sunflower.
There’s so many worlds that live inside of me.
Represented through my stick and poke galaxy.
‘111’ as a reminder to always trust my intuition.
And a matching heart with my sister was a lovely addition.
A silly ghost cat matching with my best friend.
My zodiac symbol because I’m patient, reliable, and a little stubborn.
And one of my favorites, is lyrics from my favorite band.
‘Work of art;’ because I truly love who I am.
My babies birthdays are rather new.
And if you asked me about my favorite tattoo.
I’d point to the flowers blooming from a heart.
My most recent piece of art.
This poem may be kind of silly.
But my artwork means the world to me.
You sit across from me.
Wearing your adorable smile.
Your pretty eyes find mine.
And my thoughts start to run wild.
Before the thought even has a chance to finish.
You’re pulling me into your lap.
I move my hand along your body.
And trace the lines on you like a map.
You sweep my hair out of my face.
Then place your hand softly on my cheek.
You whisper to me the thoughts I didn’t say.
And kiss me like you’ve been waiting all week.
I move my lips along your neck.
And run my fingers through your hair.
I hear you sigh like they belong there.
I touch all of the right places.
The ones that make you forget how to act.
And you let me know I am.
By creating patterns with your nails on my back.
I feel your heart change its beating.
Like this is exactly what you’ve been needing.
In this moment together we are set free.
Right here with you is where I want to be.
