    Returning To Love - Londyn Michaele

    LOVE DEFINED

    SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY

    Your love always feels like home to me.

    LILIES

    Our love is complex in its own way.

    It has created a newness inside of me and you.

    How you present your love to me,

    not clothed with perfection but gentle, pure, intentional.

    All the things I daydream about,

    love is no longer one of my coffee shop thoughts,

    It's our reality.

    I’m scared to share it with someone else.

    Because for however long,

    and

    imagine you here lying next to me.

    I get lost in the words, the rhythm, the beat.

    I replay this scene again

    and

    again.

    It will never get old to me.

    When I find myself wanting you,

    I quietly hum the tune.

    I can’t recreate this moment or feeling

    with anyone but you.

    You are my song.

    JOHN COLTRANE

    It’s been months since I last saw you,

    Six, to be exact.

    But I remember the smallest things so vividly.
