I will not be defined
By the color of my skin
The style of my clothes
Or what shape I am in
My size does not make me
Any different from you
Look in the mirror
It’s all point of view
Society has
No claim over me
Trying to validate
What I refuse to be
But I know better
Than any of they
I know my heart
And with that, I’m okay

There was something about you
A magical essence no one else had
The memory of us still lingers
Satin sheets, two bodies, unclad
Nights spent in rapturous glory
Until sunlight broke that morn
When you silently slipped away
And I lay shattered and forlorn
Time continues ever slowly
Since the day you said goodbye
But my love for you, forever, only
Remains, until the day I die

Speak to me
in muted tones
Words,
like fragrant flowers
bloom
Whisper
to my soaring heart
Intimate thoughts
take over,
consume
For you,
my love,
my one,
my only
Can save me
from my darkened soul
You alone,
can calm the fears
You alone,
can make me whole
