Morning Thoughts

Lost in You

By Rachel DowPublished 7 years ago • 1 min read

Every bump,

Every bruise,

Every freckle

I want to memorize

Everything that

Contributes to the

Topography of your skin

Breathe you in

Sleepy and soft-smiled

At three in the morning

I want you to understand

The strength in your smile,

The gentleness in your hands,

The sweetness in your heartbeat

I want to draw the pathways to your arms on a map

So I know where home is.

If I could spend my life learning the language of you,

I would.
