DiscriptionHow is it that we describe our feelings in actions?Discription4 months ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes More Like This
Sadness, in the way we cry, in the way we seclude ourselves from others.
Anger, in the way we yell, in the way we lash out at others.
Happiness, in the way we smile, in the way we laugh with others.
But I cannot describe love only in the touch of your hands, or the kiss of your lips.

The way an itching ache fills me when you are far away, urging and begging me to curl you up and hold you in my chest. Though along side it is a variable peace, knowing that th

trying my hardest to think of something
meaningful to say.
when i do utter-stutter out something
with a grimace masquerading as a smile,
you mock the weary-worn words i borrowed.
and i spurn myself for my addiction to
singing pretty words that are
ever falling flat.
and i find myself addicted to the
easy way you stroke my worries,
kissing my raw nerves asleep.
i find that all the failing words i
try to say are right there, staring
me down lovingly, as you touch my
forehead to yours.

Rest your weary body,
and let your muscles

Let my fingertips dance,
their way along your spine.
I am full with peace,
Let me give you what

I see Andromeda chained to

And Gemini mirrors itself in your hands,

G'Morning Valentine And just so you know, the worst part of my morning is opening your stupid, squeaking door. But I open it anyway, assuring a loud, annoying good morning to everyone in the house but you. Even as I unzip my coat and throw my bag on the floor, you continue sleeping. So I take a moment to look at you, really look at you. I have to smile at the way you curl up on your side, your hair haloed on your pillow, your lips slightly parted, and your chest slowly rising and falling. I think it’s seeing you like this that makes my heart swell in the cheesiest way.G'Morning Valentine3 months ago in Short Stories More Like This

you feel me,
like an open heart surgery.
in the way that the slightest ripple
in my ocean of emotion,
causes the largest swell in yours.
and it goes back and forth,
back and forth;
like waves knocking against the hull
of this ship.
