The L Word
Don't say it out loud
Not yet
Shhh stop
Let’s enjoy these late night smiles
6am snoozing, forehead kisses while the sun begins to rise
We have plenty of time
Still new but so familiar,
comfortable, simple, easy
words we use both use to describe
Pretty sure we both just want to be right by each other's side
I want to know you through March, April,
Mays, Junes, Julys even throw in some holiday pies.
Let’s be honest I think you knew
My plans went out the window when you drove around in circles by the river on night 2
I felt like I had somehow been missing someone I never knew
Oh screw it, alright I’ll say it.
I have a little something to confess
The truth is somewhere along the way I fell in love with you.

Silly Insecurities
This level of good has me trembling inside
Worried pleasure and pain might coincide
What if one day I call your bluff
Just silly insecurities that call out my name
Trying to protect me from what the past had to say about love
Silly insecurities telling me I should just hide
I wont do it, no I won’t
it’s worth the risk at this point.

6ams
6am
alarm goes off
eyes open with a little grin
yawn, small stretch
I kiss your arm
then run my fingers through your hair
our eyes meet in a warm stare
a big smile on your face
good morning beautiful
first words of every day
foreheads together
noses rubbing
your breathe on my face
a certain softness to how we wake
snooze #1 sounds
you roll over
press the button
arms outstretched
my legs lock you in place
laying here quietly skin to skin
our own personal little haven
can we just stay all day
safe, cozy, comfortable, half naked
curled up in these soft blankets
as the sun starts to come in
a little moment in time each day to take it all in
6:30 sounds the last alarm
time to go
I dont want to but i have to written all over your face
like you are fighting the urge to hit snooze and call in
you make this cute little sound
sometimes I sit up and kiss your face
then I tell you to leave I mean we have to pay for this place
Mornings with you are my favorite.
6ams can't come too soon

Can I keep you?
Smiles, laughter, something new. Easy, simple, refreshing and as comfortable as my favorite pair of house shoes. How is it possible we have only known each other for a minute or two? I am starting to crave your attention. Watching my calls and texts hoping it's you. I wasn't looking for anything in particular. Until there was you.

( From week one maybe two found in drafts after I was already in love with you )
Are you awake?
We laid there
big spoon to little spoon
you were holding me so tight
Your warm breathe on the back of my neck
My feet tucked between your knees
I tried not to speak
it had worked the night before
Willed the words to dissipate before they snuck out
I tried so hard to just drift off to asleep
I couldn't this time
It was different tonight
A deep breathe in a long breathe out
"Are you awake?"
Yes...
"Dont freak out ok...
...I think I love you"
I love you too....
No one moved
Nothing changed
You didn't stand up and walk away
My heart sped up and then back down
I'm sure you already knew
Like everything else with us never really any doubt
almost as if it had happened before
just like a natural course
I rolled over, kissed you
we closed our eyes
fell asleep in each others arms
hands together, hearts entwined.
