Hello beautiful souls. Welcome to my heart. This is my reading of my poem And This Too. A poem about the type of love we all deserve. I write poetry to make sense of, express, and capture how I feel, in any given experience, as I make my way through this life. Some of the things I experience in life can be very hard to logically explain, but poetry doesn't, and has never, needed to be logical. What my poetry means to me may be very different to what it means to you. Such is the beauty of art. I hope it touches you, in the way you need to be touched, in this very moment. From my heart to yours. Namaste.

Transcript

I want to let you love me.

I want it to swallow me whole.

To be engulfed by its power.

To let it rip me apart.

Over and over again.

As I die a thousand deaths.

I ache for your touch like the desert aches for water.

For your eyes to see into my deepest crevices.

The parts of me that usually hide.

Safe and cocooned in the dark.

I long for my body to tingle.

From your gentle breath upon my skin.

Your hot firm lips upon mine.

Leaving a blaze of fire in their wake.

I want you to see me naked.

Not without clothes but without masks.

Naked to my core.

And I want you to love every part of me.

I want you to take my darkness and my light.

Cradle it in your hands and say Yes,

And this too.
