#Dating2026 is like learning a new dance move
No one sees all the bruises from falling on my butt more times than I can remember
But I must keep getting back up if I want to get it right
And one day I will ❤️
I'm watching you sleep,
wondering if it's me,
if I'll meet all your needs,
if I'll be everything you see.
Maybe I'm just not subdued,
too loud, too blue.
I'll never be friendly like you.
I'm much quicker to think I'm being used.
#spokenword #poetry #selfworth #dating2026 #selflove
I'll be wishing you were here with me
instead of reachable only by phone,
dreading the day you stop listening
and my poetry and I end up alone.

Acting out of service is
my only intention.
I surprise you not
for your reaction,
but for the action
of loving you
how you should be loved,
holding you how
you should be hugged.

I have dreams,
he proposes,
paths of petals dropped from roses,
promises sealed in golden.
I go where he goes.
It's a sacred kind of love,
forged in fire,
hardened by the sun,
mined from stardust,
bound into one.

For weeks and for days,
we met one weekend
in the forest of Jubilee,
and it felt like we were meant to be.
For weeks and for days,
that first kiss sent me to outer space.
And now I revolve around you.
Four weeks and four days…

My love for football (soccer) collided with a different type of love and this was the result.
I guess it'd be easier if I didn't like you so much.
Like when you get no playing time,
so on the way to the game,
you have no reason to rush…

Dating 2001:
Men in their 20s - they're so nature!
#Dating2026:
Men in their 20s - I need to pull their pants up and put jackets on them
He loved her for she stilled the rippling water in his mind…

I'd go anywhere with you

Falling for him again
in the quiet moments.
In the small things.
In the way he carries the weight
without ever announcing it.
Love doesn’t always restart with fireworks.
Sometimes it deepens. 🤍
💕❤️💕Happy Valentine’s Day 💕❤️💕

Falling For Him - the original 💕
It was not love at first sight
No, at least not for me
Falling for him was so much sweeter
It was like reading a book for the first time
And every page pulls you deeper
#spokenword #fallingforhim #valentinesday #dating2026 #lovestory
I want you
I want to dance in clouds and sing to stars
I want to keep him close when he is far
I want to be with him like he's mine
I want to kiss his lips all the time
I want to hold his face in my hands

#lovestory
I bought myself flowers
and was reminded that love
doesn’t require witnesses.
Happy Galentine’s/Valentine’s Day 💐
This is for anyone choosing themselves today, tomorrow and every other day in the year.
Share this with someone 💕

No valentine for me
I really shouldn’t be surprised
But there was this guy
And oh my
He had these eyes
And this smile
He talked like a romantic
And sung me songs
The really good ones
About love and longing
And desire and falling…

there's only one man whose hand I hold

Destined Collision
I’m home in your embrace…
Please don’t go. Stay here. Want me.
I can’t afford for you to haunt me.

Unreachable
I’m so far out of reach, when you reach for me…
Hold me then
Lie close to me
Drift to sleep slowly
Leave me crying quietly
Why do women feel this way? When men want things to stay how they are…
#spokenword #originalpoem #modernlove #dating2026 #havingaboyfriendisembarassing
If calm feels unfamiliar, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
It means you healed.
