“Can I be close to you?” - The Paper Kites

Close… on levels that we desire. On levels that we deserve. A deep and lasting intimacy that brings us comfort and resounds throughout the entirety of our being. Come close, my love. It’s time.

I’m excited to see what goals we can set together and the goals we can achieve together. I believe that we can be the team that sees all that we set our hands to come to fruition. I believe in you and you believe in me. With that power we can do anything, my love. Let’s get to it!

“How could a heart like yours ever love a heart like mine?” - Willamette Stone

I’m feeling a little less put together today. A little more unsure that you’ll come. That you’ll love me.

I’ve really been leaning into my “When You Love Somebody” playlist on Spotify. Each song bringing me closer to the feeling of you being present in my life. Today’s go to? “Come and Get Your Love” by Redbone.

So… come and get it, love!

One of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken hangs in my office. It’s a photo of a monk that I took while I was living in Oregon. This to say - I want my next set of favorite photos to have you in them.

“How should I embrace you?” -Aereogramme

I want nothing more than to feel you in my arms this morning. That space waits for you. Desires to welcome you. Wants you to feel at home.

“All this time we were waiting for each other”
-OneRepublic

There will be a moment in our connection that the realization of our “waiting for each other” will hit us like a freight train. It may not happen when we first meet or in the early days of our relationship, but it will come. What a day that will be, darling.

The days are soaked with sun

Hot and golden

Ripe

For the fruit of two hearts to break through

The parched days of the past

And savored by lovers

In a forever summer

Our risk will reward

The cup we sip from can’t hold

Drinking abundance

Today feels light. Like the perfect day for smiling, laughing, holding hands. I hope we get to experience that together soon, my love.

Pulled

Into you

Into me

We are two dancers

Who know the sound of the other

A rhythm unnamed

Untamed

A song that only we can hear

And only we can move to

The floor awaits our feet to take flight

So… to quote David Bowie

“Let’s dance!”

The lesson I’ve learned

Only with a grateful heart

Will your love come forth

I’m at my favorite coffee shop this morning. I wish you were meeting me. Greeting me with a simple, “Hey you.” Letting those words spread a warmth that my coffee can’t. I imagine you sipping. Smiling. Delighting in the flavors of your beverage as I delight in you, my love.

“It take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me”
-Bob Dylan

I was enjoying spinning some records last night and Bob Dylan’s “The Man in Me” played. I’ve heard covers of it, but Bob does it best. The lyrics got me thinking of how I spend the majority of my time - in seclusion. I don’t go out trying to give my masculine energy away. I reserve it for you so that when you come, the fullness of who I am is all yours.

All.

Yours.
