These ink drops Form words of love Little moments pressed Like flowers in a book To capture the beauty Of a single moment And that’s every moment I share with you.
As I Fall
Oh, as I fall for someone How am I floating across a sea? Oh, why for so long was there no one How was there only me? Oh, but you sailed to my shores How did we melt and merge into one? Oh, how’d you shake my core? How’d you get to become my sun?Continue reading “As I Fall”

Tell me, why areContinue reading “A Tornado Formed in the Sky”
