Verse

I find you beautiful

in commas,

in pauses,

in the way my breath learns your name

My own

Reframed.

You arrive like a sentence unfinished

no period,

no rush,

just me leaning into the rhythm.

To be seen.

Your beauty don’t scream.

It hums.

Low.

its Ancestral.

Settling into my bones

like it always knew the address to rip the air from my lungs.

You touch me without grabbing.

Hold me without claiming.

Feed my softness

like its something u wanna remain in,

like it’s not something to conquer

but something to protect

from a world that been starving for it.

Hook

With you, I don’t feel taken

I feel kept

in ways the world never learned

With you, I don’t feel handled

I feel held

in ways I always deserved

Verse

Your beautiful in fragments

Scattered far and wide

Pieces tipped without easing

Gathered edges

No reasons needed.

Your beautiful in verbs.

In doing.

In showing up

Braved faced in wake of the unknown

beauty in the vulnerability shown

Trying to detest the fears of what could be

In the space on your chest.

My body hears you

before my fear can interrupt.

Melts into your presence

like armor realizing

it can finally unclutch.

You come quiet and that kinda love is few

Even when u leave me confused in the transparency i give to u

Tears i never wanted to come thru

But that kind of beauty

doesn’t fade.

It roots.

Hook

With you, I don’t feel taken

I feel kept

in ways the world never learned

With you, I don’t feel handled

I feel held

in ways I always deserved

Verse

Your beautiful in adjectives

my tongue writing your name

in cursive

Immersively

In a synchronicity that echos

Enviously slow,

Desirable in troves

intentionally raw

Energy effortlessly flowed

unafraid of the flaws

Soulfully sought

I see past ur physical

I find u completely beautiful

And if I forget how to soften,

meet me in the quiet again

where you don’t reach to take,

you stay… and I rest in it.

Remind my body

it don’t have to brace no more,

I can open up

and still feel secure.

Hook

With you, I don’t feel taken

I feel kept

in ways the world never learned

With you, I don’t feel handled

I feel held

in ways I always deserved
