loveself

 

falling in love
finishes
A varnished soul
with watery breezes
like misty kisses
on my skin;
puddled promises
wont sink in.
flaws sanded
against the grain,
knots expose every uglyscar
streaming every beautiful thought; trickles
to strip it bare,
erase the heart
already there

babbling and barking
hearts and thoughts

stepping on eggshell’s
shining show.
furnished heart and home
movein, backout
I remain whole.
fall in love with me
and you will know
how to fill empty rooms
with promises and kisses in beautiful places
in your house, filled
with lovely uglymars;
that doesn’t find it hard
to be loved at all
