you looked at me with softened almond eyes, edges wrinkles up in the way only smile lines can. your eyes always reminded me of those sour apple rings – sugary on the outside, sour on the inside, and I think if the only person you were ever kind to was me, that is all the motivation I need to stay on earth.

your twizzler red lips curled into a smile, chewy rope tilted up and I thought if I leaned over and kissed you, it would be entirely too sweet. I’ve never liked twizzlers, but I’d eat them everyday if it meant just one moment with you.

your laugh is unabashed and loud, the savory butter to your smile’s maple syrup. cozy, warm, and confectionary, I think I could drown in your presence if you weren’t my anchor.

freckles span across your skin like they could tell a future of us. you and me, me and you. maybe laughing at something stupid I said. maybe sharing a bowl of candy. I always thought they were too sweet, but it’s okay – it’s the perfect excuse to give you half anyway.

| k. - I tried to write you something, but I had a reese’s in my mouth and you were smiling so big, I got distracted. - @nosebleedclub xxii. maple syrup

Soft Poem - Ana Božičević - Croatia

I came I slept I came I looked up The sky was the blue Of a baby powder bottle From a country That no longer Exists The softest breeze Touched the Honeysuckle perimeter I was feeling a Little nice Current in my body Nikola are you with me Gods of thunder Ancestors If I called out to you Would you answer In this land

Watermelon Kisses

CW: None / By: me

I characterize seasons by foods.

Spring is strawberry pound cake.

Summer is sticky watermelon kisses.

Fall is freshly baked bread.

Winter is simmering potato soup.

I characterize seasons by actions.

Spring is sprinkler dances.

Summer is a trip to the snow cone stand.

Fall is toothy smiles while spinning in leaves.

Winter is snowflake falls.

I characterize seasons by love.

Spring is writing love poems.

Summer is sharing popsicles.

Fall is gentle embraces.

Winter is fireplace caresses.

Where are all the Dogs?

You only love silence when you're born in noise.

Standing on the edge of the verandah precipice

Staring at the slowly moving city roads

With the cars carrying empty, tired heads

Devils masquerading as human faces.

The sun has set and the purple clouds

Have engulfed the ocean of the sky

Whatever remained in your wardrobe,

Unchanged clothes have now disappeared

Like I have, from your life.

Crows sit on the cables connecting people

Fibres that bend with a gush of rainy wind

And in the midst of this evening reverie

You fail to notice the stray dogs

They have disappeared from the streets.

Where are all the dogs?

Have you seen them from your verandah precipice?

The ice cold wind at the edge of the potted plants

And the violet purple lilac crimson sky

So many colours to reflect yourself.

I have disappeared in the clouds myself

My heart isn't there, it probably never was.

The dogs have lost my sight, and you have lost them,

If they were to question you for the reason,

You'd probably answer that Life came in the way.

Life, a wonderful obstacle to everyone living,

He stops the dreamers from dreaming

Relishes when lovers fall like Lucifer.

And you are still admiring the purple lilac sky

While your wardrobe is left open for moths to fly by.

H2O

You are a mist brushing my skin gentle caress softly sighing You are dew early morning clinging to my petals helping me bloom You are a warm rainfall embracing me lightly each drop making me shine You are a spring shower cleansing me renewing me washing away all my fears You are a downpour drenching me violently claiming me becoming yours You are a flood like my emotions engulfing me consuming me losing myself in you You are the ocean all I can see vast and endless deep and true You are water sustaining me necessary Without you life would cease to exist

some great philosopher

We stood outside, letting the evening mist soak through our coats a single street light illuminating your face as you ask me a question. In the past you asked such difficult questions like "What if?" and "How?" And now in the mist and the lamplight my hand rests in yours and you ask me simply, "Would you like to go inside?" Like some great philosopher, or maybe Bob Dylan

love prompts that melted my soul:

(listen to "People" by Libianca from 00:16! while reading these pls! AND TAG ME WHEN YALL WRITE)

silent hugs.

forehead kisses. or kisses on the crown of your head esp when you're not expecting it

the kiss after being pulled onto their lap ✧♡ω>\\<

kissing your palm before they wrap that arm around their neck for a hug !!!!

hugs turning to into small dances in an empty living room with slow music

"don't do that to me, love" with a gentle, hardly containable smile [im a goner atp]

smiling whenever you act adorable.

noticing their little actions

feeling feverish whenever they're so close :')

resting your head on their shoulder

when they love cuddling >>>>

when they're always touching, subtly, gently, boldly.

looking at you whenever you enter into the room

"I'll love you until my last breath and in the heavens too."

being thankful for their presence

that breathtaking moment when they realise that they're urs forever

"write my name next to yours, i want that spot forever." as a whisper. in a very intimate moment too pls. oh fuck

laughing our loud whenever you do dumb shit together

she fell first but he didn't realise he was loving her all along so when she decided to not love him anymore, he got thrown into his love for her that he nearly suffocated

^ she fell first, but actually he did because falling felt like sleeping, that he never realised how easy it was to love her (CHANGE PRONOUNS AS U LIKE) (inspired by @diaryofaromantica in Instagram!!)

Whatever happened to 2014 Tumblr... miss her

Platform

The train of thought left early

by the time i reached the platform

She was standing still, waiting for me

In the midst of the chaos surrounding.

I was running late, i was running slow

amidst the town square and the roads down below

The platform arose and the train left

And i could not see her anywhere.

Wanting to fly, i envisioned her wings

Carrying me in her angel arms and through the clouds

As i saw the townsmen run around in their lives

Working tirelessly under chloroform tiles.

She doesn't have the wings of Poesy that Keats took

Or the hemlock that he was drunk on,

Intriguing poets and lovers and dreamers

To kill themselves in moments of despair.

All the gods could conspire and they'd be happy to

take her away from me in the long gone train

They could put a car crash on the road i walk

And make sure a blind woman crosses the road.

I'm tired of running and i want to stop

And live amongst a small apartment overlooking the town

Not unlike the platform where she left me alone

among millions of broken fragments of men.

I will live alright, I'll be fine in the tables of Mary

where they could stitch my mouth and unshackle my arms

And say I'm free from my duties in

the Free Nation i was born in and will die in.

I saw a quote that said "i feel like i'm constantly worrying about the next part of my life without realizing that i'm right in the middle of what i used to look forward to." and i felt that.
