When it’s just you and me, I allow for the possibilities. 

Often my brain eagerly eats up the good and spits it out as bile.

Telling me I am undeserving.

But the way you look at me, the way you say my name, the way you smile and I swear the Sky will break wide open spilling forth Sunshine out of every crack…

You make the impossible fade.

My heart runs wild.  My soul is calmed.

Laying my head against your chest, I close my eyes, breathe you in, and listen to your heartbeat.

The strong rhythm of you, and your gentle embrace are otherworldly but rooted in strength.

It takes a strong and gentle man to love a woman so wild.

In that space, our souls are laid bare.

You see me,  I see you.

You smile and my heart cracks wide open along with the Sky.
