I love it when the wind comes

Nutty almond in my mouth

My lips are numb

The trees are dancing or talking, I can’t decide

It smells like green

Pull the covers close

Tawny port is thick and sweet

My body feels heavy

I've been writing for a few years in my spare time. I'm trying to find my voice, though I'm not sure if I'll know when it's here. For now, I'm just enjoying the journey.
