Expressions of Love

Boundless

a dancing spirit
a loving soul
i am whole & holy

the divine feminine
mystic & masculine
there is something
so pure about needing
nothing but the simple
joy in being here & now

daydreaming & losing
sleep over the things my
heart can’t bear to keep
all for itself. i share my gifts
with the world to make
u feel less alone. listen
to the music and feel yourself
get lost in the expression
of the soul. finding home
in feelings, ideas & people

stretch ur sensibility
beyond limits
love knows no
boundaries

– poems by substance

forever

Forever and ever until the last body drops.
Forever and ever until the last leaf falls.
Forever and ever until the last drop dries.

That’s how long I’ll love you.
Until we cease to exist.
Until the matrix is unplugged and even maybe after,
I will continue to love you.

My love may wane, it may need space.
My love might have dips, and bumps, and obstacles.
My love might fuel my anger,
but until my last breathe and maybe even after,

I will love you.
Forever and ever until…

fragile

The fragility of ‘I love you’ stops me from saying it.
Knowing that you can go back on those words scares me.
The weight of the words is too much for me to withstand.
I’d rather not say them.
I’d rather protect myself.
I’d rather long for you than love you.

If I were to love you then I’m in danger.
If I were to love you, I would lose myself.
If I were to love you, there’s no guarantee
that you would love me back.

As fragile of a phrase that is,
I’m not strong enough to say it.
I’m not responsible enough to handle
the consequences of 143.
As much as I do feel it, as much as I fight it,
as much as I hate it,
I know there’s no stopping it.
As much as I hurt, as much as it will hurt,
as much as it will continue to hurt,
I struggle to whisper those words…

… iloveyou.
