Poems
If You Are What You Love, Then I Am...
If you are what you love
Then I am...
The crackling of a campfire
The smell of rain
My son's infectious laughter
Freshly baked bread with butter
I am flirtatious banter
Getting to the heart of the thing
Over cheese fries and milkshakes
I am road trips and mixtapes
The moon in all its phases
I am the deep ring of a cello
And swimming in warm water
I am you, with your sweet eyes
And slow language.
I am the stars
This coffee
This life right here.
