after

geat drops of sweat dripped off my forehead

from on top him

I looked out the window

reveling

then back onto his body

treasure trail leading down

 

after

I walked

in crisp air

up the drizzly hill

refreshed

glad to be alive

glowing if I could

 

after

I think of my partner

read his text

asking where I am

I text tell him

worry creeping in

 

am I doing the wrong thing?

is he mad?

will he leave me?

 

after

I sometimes feel insecure

glad for this freedom

but

wondering if my man

who I adore

can handle my adventures

 

once

after

I withdrew

and he held me

with time I felt connected

again

 

he withdraws a bit

sometimes I have the energy

to go after him

and hold and make it alright

 

other times I don't

resent that he's withdrawing

and I'm withdrawing

and that I'm worrying

 

opportunity to grow

and bless

and put on the king
