Do Over I love the ones I love. The ones who I'm crazy about are in so much pain, I long to hold them close and kiss them softly so they can feel my love. So it may make them feel safe and warm. When there are people I like I let my fear keep me from being all over them, releasing a life time of pent up expression, all out of fear of coming on too strong and scaring them off. I often get caught up in the moment, some of those people captivate me, I get lost in their smile or their gaze makes me feel small, loved, desired, exposed, and I go inside of myself as I blush under their gaze. Then when I leave I think about how I wanted to hold them, pull them closer to me countless times, kiss them for a while, but didn't, because of these walls we put up against each other. Then I lose them, along with all those chances that felt endless... I suppose it doesn't matter if they feel smothered. They'll leave and someone new will come, someone who pulls me close when I shower them in love, someone who kisses me when I blush so I blush more, someone who runs to me when they don't feel safe. Someone who has been looking to love and be loved as much as me. Those who fear love will run from me, and those whom my heart tells me need it most I will chase, because sometimes we run not for our psychical safety, but so we don't have to open our selves to the potential of being hurt by someone it would be easier to forget. The way I love is a form of expression for me, it's something I have to do and I've been hurting myself by holding that part of me back. Not pulling people close, not covering people in kisses, not holding their hands. If you'll reject me that's fine, if platonic or romantic love isn't your thing that's fine, someone aside from me will love me, one day they will come and return my love ten fold, this isn't about me, the skies love me, the trees love me, the seas love me, the breeze loves me, the dirt loves me, the Earth loves me, my Lord loves me, I love me. I know these things. But did you know, that I love you too? #poetry #expression #exposeyourself #love #passion #red #blue #orange #soulmate #twinflame #god #religion #lovecult https://www.instagram.com/p/BtxNTdug3GF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qjid093dnml
