Love is... #17
poetluckerate:
Love is an oscillating lawn sprinkler
you may have to periodically adjust your positioning
maybe adjust the pressure just a bit
yet sooner or later most everything gets sprinkled
“…the wind is in the trees,
But they are silent; still they roll along...”
– A Night Piece by Williams Wordsworth (via olivermatich)
“The whispers you breathe
spin through the air between us
and dance in my ears.”
– Daily Haiku on Love by Tyler Knott Gregson (via tylerknott)
shoutfortheday:
There is only one word my heart seems to beat I say in my sleep I smile as I greet There is only one word my lips long to sing my hands want to bring my ears sing to ring There is only you.
Maybe.
thethingsiwriteonhere:
Maybe I should just cave in And let the brittle symphony in Through it, at least perfection reigns And everything my body craves
The touch of fire The itch of sin The fingers you So lovingly bring.
And I, an easel Writhe underneath Each stroke of colour You shall unsheathe.

viveremori:
I do not know how long this will last, How far will you say these things? All I’m really aware is the fact that: You are okay with me being me.
I was lost in a cocoon of assumptions, Unsure of the way out; to unravel me Would be such an easy feat, when it Comes right down to the ending scene.

Wishing we were...
toutpourlamour:
If you dissect a bird To diagram the tongue You’ll cut the chord Articulating song.
If you flay a beast To marvel at the mane You’ll wreck the rest From which the fur began.
If you pluck out the heart To find what makes it move, You’ll halt the clock That syncopates our love.
— Sylvia Plath, Admonition
“Anyone who is in love is making love the whole time, even when they’re not. When...”

He dreams her heart through his, and ties a stopper to keep her from slipping away.
apocalypsepoet:
i want to taste
more than your words
upon my tongue
like a snowflake
you’re perfectly unique
one in a sea falling
from the clouded skies
of my life
that has graced me
with your presence
leaving me chilled
in awe and wonder
