There was a moment that I didn’t even realise had passed
Where we swayed to the uncomfortable side of “in love”
And this morning I found us balanced on the very tip of an arrow
Scared to breathe I’ve been inhaling so slowly all day
I won’t risk whispering anything in your ear tonight
Or a careless brush against you while we sleep
My heart is feathers and they are scattered all over this home
I will gather them up in a pillowcase to sleep safer so I remember to
Keep my feelings in check and think head before heart
Head before heart
Move with intention
Love with care
Think with clarity
Be so still
So quiet
We can stay like this forever
If we don’t wake up
Don’t fall further
The wrong side of love
Out

How I did it: I cracked on Thursday two weeks ago and decided I was going to move out ASAP. I lined up a whole bunch of units to look at on Sat 14th and the first one I looked at I liked. There were lots of people viewing it so I grabbed an application form, filled it out really quickly then drove to the real estate and put a deposit on it. They confirmed I got it on the Monday. I moved the next Saturday. Read how I did it…
i want to wake up in a new life
where i have grown some kind of backbone
and a dream that is made of something more
stable than stardust
My fingers will be strong enough to hold onto
your heavy heart and my eyes will see
everything that you could possibly be
in one moment in time
I will be so fair and free that birds will
get tired trying to fly close to me
and when I come to the wall that is holding me back
I will tear it apart with the doubt that i lack
I will be, I will be, I will be
Flawless
Unbreakable
Impossible
I’m in love with the way
We fit together
like a puzzle
Of contrasting scenery
Earth with ocean
Sunrise with sunset
I’m in love with the way
Your eyes are my lullabies
When you hold me to sleep
And you’re the last thing I keep
At the end of my every day
I’m in love with the way
You draw maps on my skin
With your fingertips
That show me how
To never forget how to love you
I’m in love with the way
Our angles touch
And complete the puzzle
Our pieces become some kind
Of beautiful mystery
