this is the first poem i've written in a while, and although it's not perfect, it's very dear to me. titled revision of the fourth of july.

#my writing #first post? lol #admittedly i sat on this one for a long time and despite having read it over many a time and knowing there's still something it's lacking #i can't bring myself to make any changes. this is 'revision' and she's said all she has had to say. maybe the lack is just an inherent part #of this poem. that i can't make this complete because the poem dictates that i'm not. that i lie and lack...haha #original poem #original poetry #sapphic poetry #wlw poetry #okay. that's enough exposure tags i think.#i submitted this to my school's art zine for extra credit in my creative writing class so i hope that no one actually reads said zine #or that this doesn't reach any of my schoolmates who also happen to be on here. lol

“I don't love women the way men love women.

I don't want to tame them.

I don't want to own them.

I don't want to treat them like a trophy in a case.

I just want to be close to them.

It's still hunger,

but a different kind of hunger.

-I almost didn't recognize it at first.”

-She is the poem by June Bates

i crave attention, but i refuse to humiliate myself by asking for it.

i want to be loved, but i don’t want anyone to truly know me.

i am trying to make myself digestible, i don’t want to leave a sour taste in the mouth of my consumer.

trailing my nose up their body, stopping to press kisses on their hips, stomach, tits. My hand runs follow their curves on the opposite side, rough calluses in delicate touch. they’re the rolling hills i roam.

I call her my moon but she is the sun and the stars. i am just the moon reflecting off her, cherishing and adores her light.

cosmos of a thousand stars I found the one I met in my dreams. who said she'd meet me between the sky and sea.

she was like a golden light, the warmth of the sun as it soaks into your skin. that bright spark of kindness on a lone wildflower to bloom.

she's a light so rare a comfort in fear, that glimmer spark of hope. my golden flame under the same sky I'll follow you through any cloud.

-Faith

"I love you" is self explanatory, although it doesn't quite cover what I want it to mean. "I love you" is as simple as that. I love you.

But it doesn't explain how after we kiss, I look at you with pure adoration, relishing in the fact that you're mine. I love you.

It doesn't include the deep ache I feel in my chest when you leave, or the butterflies I feel when you're with me. I love you.

It can never fully show how completely and totally intoxicated I am by your presence, how you could ask me to do anything and I would do it. I love you.

It can never encompass everything I feel, the fear of losing you. How I cherish every touch, every glance my way, everything you do. I love you.
