And love me


In the light of day

Show me the way

And lead me

 

When it’s time to stand

Take my hand

And hold me

 

Use the stones to cross the creek

Take your hand to graze my cheek

And touch me

 

Weave your fingers through my hair

Show me just how much you care

And feel me

 

Lay with me in Queen Anne’s Lace

Cup your hands around my face

And kiss me

 

Pass the rows of daffodils 

Watch the rain on window sills

And love me

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
