✏ *It's a tiptoe in my world when you're not around. You are my balance.*

A collection of emotional words stringed together by broken hearts, friendly smiles, new love, familiar love, and pillow thoughts. 💞 Dedicated to the lovers who dare to dream, even after their hearts have been torn at their seams. You dare to love and because of that, you dare to heal the world.

It's safe in this area
where my head is close to your heart
where love is within a step

It's safe this raising of my arm to your face
this holding me in your embrace,
lacking words like haste on our tongue-tied tongues

Is it safe our attempt at
honesty?
This trying to reveal myself to you
wholly?
I fear you might know me further
if you unearth another casket from your
past.

I fear I might call it love.

Love heals your heart
HATE HITS YOUR HEART
Love mends what hate tears apart
Love is a healthy meal
and hate is a cancer
Hate is the father of monsters
a bloody barbarian gangster

"I love most things that are bitter-sweet, but not everything."

"What about the bees honey and their sting?"

"They're too little and so are their wings."

"Don't you think small things can make an impact big?"

"I think small things are like a misunderstanding."

You're a reflection of my mother's expectations
and that is big
but you have my heart
which is very small
and you have it all.

"Your heart is bitter-sweet
but don't confuse it with other things
your heart is my everything
and I am nothing without it.
