Hospital Hours

Ephemeral yet Contagious

By RiddlePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

26 hours of honesty

Heavenly in bed

Starved of truth and touch

Yet golden glances keep me fed

A push and a pull

But forever I stay

When in your presence

It’s impossible to go away

Please see my truth

With you I think big

Hours diving in your ocean eyes

From your vessel I take a deep swig

So I dream in hues of sunshine

Wish it could be just us two

A part of me stifled

Hiding and you have no clue

About the Creator

Riddle

Every morning I look naked into the mirror and repeat, "I love, appreciate, and accept myself exactly as I am."

Love is the cure to this maddening, chaotic world. Show it to yourself, for it will ripple into your reality abundantly.
