it’s full, it runneth over
it’s deep, knowing no end, going on and on
it’s safe, like arms holding me tight
it’s refreshing, like a sip of something cool and sweet on a warm day
it’s vast, like the expanse of the sky
it’s high, and lifts me up
it’s necessary, like the next breath
it’s laughter, the kind that makes your stomach hurt
it’s sweet, like forehead kisses
it’s passionate, like hands around throat
it’s innocent, like everything is new
it’s brown, like melanin on melanin and nothing in-between
it’s comforting, like a warm blanket and good movie
it’s reassuring, never leaving time for second guessing
it’s proud, like everyone should know
it’s honest, no matter what
it’s knowing, without saying
it’s showing, without asking
it’s believing, without seeing [see also- its faith]
it’s caring, for self and others
it’s silly, like life is easy
it’s romantic, like paying attention to details
it’s intimate, like standing completely naked in my truth
it’s inevitable, because I deserve it all.
