Someday, soon
I suppose if we broke it down
there’s simply a part of you
that reminds me of me
I’d apologise for this
in a visceral display
of awkward Englishness
if I thought it would matter
a single solitary shit
but sometimes there’s weight
to your emptiness, and I know—
I’ve felt it, written it out
tattooed it on my forearms
where I keep all my best scars
so we talk for a while,
shoot the shit about everything
and nothing at all
write poems that connect oceans
and I dream that you’ll be
a better person behind a screen
than the one who stays too long
in one complicated place.
Never forget, love
there’s a world out there
with your name on her chest
she’s made of skin and memories
as real as the lines on your face
as real, and untold
to the infinite.

I like - " sometimes there is weight to your emptiness"
That resonates with me.
Your vulnerability was beautiful

Thank you, my lovely. I always love it whenever somebody pulls out the vulnerability word. Because it means i did a good job. That it reached somebody. And I appreciate the fuck out of that.
Thanks for dropping in

Absolutely beautiful. So visual, which is a trademark for you. Thank you Missy. Thank you for being you. For understanding me. For being patient with me. It has been such a help to me. I dont know how I could ever repay or even show you how much your kindness and friendship means to me. Thank you with all of my heart. ❤️

Thank you. I really appreciate that.
Sure….sure… There’s been a couple of arse-in-my-throat story moments along the way when I think I might have left a few of my anxious nails embedded in the wall, but hey… none of us are perfect. None of us are without a past. None of us don’t have some sort of weight. Anyone that says they don’t is just not being honest with themselves.
I’ve said to you before, we all deserve the chance to feel human, and I’m so glad… so, so glad you came into my life when you did. I think we found each other, and I’m proud to call you my friend.
You’ll be good. I know you will. 😊
