Unconditional

"our safe space"

Through poetry
I release bottled up feelings
I get to scream I miss you
without the embarrassment
All the ugly
and the sad
are less mortifying
I get to tell you
I love you
without cowardice
I lose and find myself
in between lines of
confessions and
metaphors that all
lead to you
It's intoxicating
to think how
of all places in this world
my art is
our sacred rendezvous
And we meet at page
a hundred and forty two
to talk about your day
like I haven't already got
a clue
