Camp cabins, college
Dorms, shared spaces communal
Living, tight bonds formed
friends
Frames
Sharing a frame of
Special moments and places
Captured adventures
Intimacy
That kind if intamacy
That builds
When you sleep in the same space
Share the same work
Learn together
The type of intimacy that builds
When you know each other
At your most vulnerable
At your most desperate
At a time when you are
Figuring it all out
That’s what I hold on to
Those Places
Do you have those places that mean so much to you,
That you can’t even visit
You can’t even think about
Without your heart filling with
A love
So big
So grand
That it swells and wraps
It’s arms
Around you as you smile and let
That feeling take over your heart
Do you have those places?
Bold Moves
Bold women teach me
Bold moves always, always fierce
Without apology
Her
Her, them, they and me
We not so different that we
Can’t gather and rule
I feel happiest in my skin when
A writing prompt that ended with a poem
14. I feel happiest in my skin when…
I’m engaged in a good conversation with a good friend. I feel happier than words can describe. I know that I don’t always have words for many things but I especially feel happy when I can experess those words without ever using words.
Feelings I feel so strong that I can not voice them,
but instead my entire body vibrates with the joy of
just being in the presence of the people I love
and care so deeply about.
I may never be able to express those words but
my whole body,
my whole soul feels it.
I sometimes don’t want to
let those feelings go,
but when I do
I make space
For those feelings to come again.
