Make A Home With Me
"Trust is another word for Love."
Dissociate with me, lover.I do not crave another. I have an undying lustFor you, who has earned my trust__Let us build a nestWhere our souls can rest;Listening to the sounds Of our voices in unison,Is hypnotic.I am reeling,Spinning,Weaving Worlds; Quixotic.Despite the factThat our...

When They Met
"All it takes is one moment to send sparks flying."
When they met, it was as if passion itself had been waiting,silent and patient, for just the right moment to ignite.The air around them grew heavy, charged with the electricityof a connection neither of them saw coming.Her whole world shifted...
