Life’s good, man.

She built a shield around her.

For those who choose to come in

Knock with good intentions

— em

The ocean crashes onto shore

And my hands have never been so wet.

—em.

She’s an explorer of nature,

explorer of the world.

But the best thing she ever did explore

was her mind and soul.

— em.

I gently place the pen on a blank piece of paper,

Close my eyes,

and suddenly, I envision the tip of my finger tracing the curves of your body.

—em.

Yes, those are the stars.
