honestly she wasn’t sure how she felt
or was she was ready for
but when she walked beside him
she felt a quiet gentle fluttering in her stomach
as though, just maybe
not all the butterflies were dead
Louise Alexandra Erskine
those little flecks of golden light
shining in your eyes
they are enough to illuminate
even my darkest places

without ever knowing it
he had taught her heart to beat again
Louise Alexandra Erskine
he took her to bed
and for the first time
she knew
how the sun feels each morning
as it rises in the sky
Louise Alexandra Erskine
it wasn’t the climb she was afraid of
it was the fall
Louise Alexandra Erskine
the walls were high
and time moved slowly
but brick by brick
he stayed long enough to take them down
and what he found there
took his breath away
Louise Alexandra Erskine
beautifully Defected
