He is lying in your arms, breathing evenly, his eyelashes seem really long from up close, and his heart is beating in sync with your own.
You can feel his heart despite your skin and his and all the barriers between them, but you swear it's almost as if his heart is beating inside your chest. 
and you realize, that you and him, you start war in each other's heartbeats. 
You stroke his hair, and the length of his face, and at this moment, you can't think of a reason why you wouldn't want this to be the way you spend every single night of the rest of your life. 
Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgotten. You wish if there was a way you could let him understand how much you love him. If somehow you could transfer some of the feelings you have into him, because no language can exactly translate it, no amount of words can convey it. Sometimes it feels bigger than you as whole. You don't want to admit it but it scares you, because the more you try to control something, the more it controls you, and his love has taken over your heart. 
Sometimes it feels ridiculous, because you never thought that you could be in love, not like this at least. 
but he's here, and he is real.
 He won't sneak out before dawn, he won't ask for your number and never return your calls, he won't call you beautiful without looking into your eyes. 
and that's enough, it's more than enough.

My thoughts are not holy, My body isn't a temple It's not a sacred space It's tender flesh and a fragile spine, It's nothing remotely divine, It's belimished skin and visible markings, I know there is solace in metaphors, in similes, in saying things not as they are but as what they're like,  in trying to compare what you can't understand to what you do, Maybe only then it will make sense, Trying to simplify it, pulling threads and tying ends and loosening knots, trying to make it look familiar, But it is almost never accurate, Words are just letters, More times than not they hold little to no significance. Little to no reassurance, little to no validation, Sorry , a half hearted apology Always met with sincere acceptance.

 When I think about my ideal house. I think wide balconies,  I think penthouse,  I think small yet not claustrophobia inducing.  I think roomy but not huge.  I think large but just enough to house two people and a pet, preferably a cat.  I think walls, muted yellow and forest green,  I think walls that you can pin me against and kiss me. I think walls, unlike the ones I keep around my heart, that aren't prone to crumbling at any hint of tenderness. I think walls I can hang up pictures of us. Crappy art I make and posters of your favorite things. I think of walls that have ears but never heard screaming or anger, I think of walls that have never witnessed disappointment.  I think of warm nights and cool breeze and long hugs and affection unaccounted for.

The Quest.

I know regret when I see it, I spot it easily on your grey blotted aura. It glistens through your bloodshot eyes,  the windows of your soul, one glance is more than enough to recognize it. You have taken it upon yourself to seek redemption, From things you have no control over, but it never hurts to try. The sought after resurrection of what have been long dead will drain you, yet, you carry on, with a broken compass and a useless map, determined to revive what was once alive, reclaim what was once yours, But you can't seem to find it. That missi ng thing. You tell yourself that you've got nothing to lose and maybe Just maybe This time there will be a different outcome. A lie you cradle along with the truth. And when you go back to where you started, You swallow your pride and  disappointment, Like splinters of wood,  But your insides are lined with sandpaper, your spine is made of steel, and none of it longer fazes you.
