Drifting Off

LED lights, a quiet night. Crickets chirping outside my window… The lights are teal, your favorite color. I lay here holding a pillow under one arm. Wishing it was you I was snuggled up with. My other hand resting on my chest. Where I wish you could feel my heartbeat, how it speeds up thinking of your kind, mischievous eyes and beautiful face.

To think… I rushed relationships in the past. Defined myself by desire to be loved. God is love and He loves me. Freeing, letting love from on high guide. Had blinders on that He pulled aside.

Window over my head cracked, breeze blows in cooling my thoughts. Candle flickering in the corner and I realize… My heart is on fire, checking my phone for a text from you.

Crazy to think… I started talking with you on vacation, now? Still talking with you. Can’t wait to meet you face to face…

Music in the background, Teal LED’s light my notepad while a flame flickers in my heart. Warm and drifting off thinking of you…
