Love Poetry
by Nazelah
​​​dig
you tap into my heart
it is a mine, an oil well
a granite hill with a fissure
spewing fresh water and purity
geyser-hot in shower bursts
from built up pressure
be careful
you will breathe and drink and drown
refresh reset and rebirth
lose and relocate your whole self
entire being reconstructed
you, trying to recall what you were doing
before i distracted all your life
us, creating new existence
from just the first touch
attached but autonomous
connected having not yet met
me, a mere glance in your direction
causing mutual spontaneous combustion
everything, never the same again
​
​
untitled divinity
​
i wanted to write you something beautiful
a song, a poem
one spectacular verse
to blow your mind
dazzleblind you with brilliance
from my very own pen
​
but, alas, you are already written
and i am not so arrogant
as to think that i could
plagiarize god
​
​
pick me up
​
coffee is unsurprisingly beautiful
its rich taste and aroma
filling my head with exquisite wakefulness
quickening and warming my heart and hand
o generous lover
nudging me out of bed each morning
for longing to get to you
dancing melodically on my tongue
tingling my nervous system
your grind motivates me to
get up and greet the sun
clear-eyed and ready
loving caffeinated cup
promise you will always be there
waiting for me at the cafe up the street
sweet and strong
you lift me, make me believe i can
make it through any day
and my tomorrows
will always start with you
​
