A Breath is Just an Explosion


I breathe you

I wear you as perfume

You fill my olfactory with calm

I am flooded with warmth

I am 200 billion stars

I am magma

You make me 200 billion supernovas

I am an eruption of feeling

This universe

This pompeii

It never stood a chance

I need an outlet. My poetry is poor, and free verse.... but I'm a strong believer that poetry is just emotions. If I feel something when I write it must be poetry. If you feel something when you read it it must be poetry.
