Love Poem: Her

Her

Hers

It's the heart that keeps me committed.
Bound by the sacrifices of our alliance, 
I love her.

With a touch both soothing and irritating
and a smell more than just comforting, 
she's home.

In her presence I exhale as she inhales.
Only to ensure she'll be with me
in the moments to come.

In reflecting on the inspiration she's had over me
I fall deeper into her spell.

Chain smoking her attention,
refusing to come down from a high I'm not ashamed of.

With courage to tether my inner beast,
healing my inner child.
She's where I'm allowed to be passionate 
and my prayers can
roam free.
understanding vulnerability

A unity that arose from the cracks of a foundation
once settled on broken promises.

I'm forever hers..
