I fall in love with words that unveil the mysteries of self, that illuminate the path to understanding another. These words, like gentle caresses, speak to the core of my being, revealing truths that lie hidden beneath the surface. In the inquiry of what makes me interesting, I find a mirror reflecting the beauty of curiosity and connection.

The touch of skin, the warmth of hands, these are the moments where love breathes life into the mundane. Tired eyes, worried eyes, anxious eyes—they all tell stories of vulnerability and strength, of battles fought and won. Fierce eyes, burning with an inner fire, reveal the wild, untamed spirit that refuses to be subdued.

Madness, a storm within, is not a foe but a companion on this journey. It is the wild horse that cannot be ridden, yet guides me to places unknown. Restlessness, cascading like a waterfall of hair, speaks of a soul in perpetual motion, seeking, yearning, never settling.

Indecision and uncertainty, often seen as flaws, become sanctuaries of safety. They are the stubborn tears that refuse to be wiped away, the irrational fears that keep me grounded in my humanity. Hurricanes and whirlwinds, forces of nature, mirror the tumultuous emotions that swirl within me, reminding me of the power and beauty of chaos.

Standing in the rain, I find love in the droplets that kiss my skin, in the sweetness of a new moon’s glow, and in the bitterness that sprouts through life’s cracks. Movements and dances, though admired from afar, become a testament to the grace and elegance of existence.

In the act of being pushed down, I discover love in the resilience to rise again. Love exists so clearly on the ground, in the rise and fall of sleeping chests, in the parted lips of dreams. The sounds you make unknowingly, the trembles of nightmares soothed by a gentle kiss, these are the moments where love’s presence is undeniable.
The speed of your heart, the small acts of appreciation and kindness, these are the threads that weave the tapestry of love. Each moment, each gesture, a testament to the profound beauty of falling in love, over and over again. 🙏🏾♥️
