swans and dogs and beautiful poetry
I personally love

no other way out

Love poem #1
When I am trying to fall asleep
You are all I think about
Aside from the lights flickering and the washing machine humming
Nothing can take my mind off of thoughts of
Secret kisses and

Along with the wings of those who burned before mine
Burnt feathers
And curiosity
Always smell of a man who wanted
More.

Both smiling, both beautiful, both whole.
What you don’t see is the message sitting in her pocket,
Telling her that her husband isn’t coming home from war.

by the same earth, the same fire
how could you explain someone else's life
as being worth less air than your own
