scoured my pinterest
just to find bits of me
that no one else knew,
my favorite quotes and thoughts
pinned, life’s quandaries,
words, and points of view
colors and flowers and clothes
that felt like me, dark moments
that held heartache for me
i woke up one day
to find his responses
like petals landing on my nose,
my eyelids, my cheeks….
upset with myself
because my faults
showed themselves shamelessly
he said “accept that these things
are more endearing because
they are such interesting things about you!”
it made me feel worthy
that i could never be too much
for someone this open
it made me feel seen
in a way i had never been seen
before
ask me again why it’s something to miss
being so thoroughly adored
