Blue

I grew because you taught me too

I’ve hung upon your words

Your movements and reactions

Made my woman from my girl.

Your love and generosity 

So tentatively caress

All the awkward inner workings 

Of my ungoat thought process. Your wisdom of pains passed

And ability to hold

Astounded my insecurity

Your purity graced my purity.

Recalling soul filled letters

And love hearts with wings.

Gawping at your strength 

A pikey geezy king.

Memories of sweetest sweats 

Of bus journeys and baths

Of poetry and cooking

Seeking solace in your laugh.

Softness in your softness, 

Falling asleep in your kiss

Sitting in your stillness 

Reminiscing of our bliss.
