A Glass of You

By Jazmyn Edmonds

I didn’t realize how thirsty I was until drinking a glass of, you.

And no matter how much I drink, I’m forever dehydrated until I hear your voice again and our spirits meet with each passing day, while I study your essence.

Knowing true serenity, falling freely, madly.

Deeper in love gazing into the portals of your eyes as our yearning souls whisper gently to one another.

Making love without sex.

Your presence alone brings me ecstasy.

The hours pass slowly, and the day goes by yet it’s never enough time with you.

As memories flood in of our lifetimes together, my mind is playing catch up to what I always knew when I first laid eyes on you.

Our first laugh.

Our first touch.

Our first kiss.

10,000 hours.

And yet I still tremble to express how deep my love burns for you because my love is a forever kind of thing and you were, unexpected.

Heaven sent.

But I find peace at the witching hour

Finding you in my mind every night as I'm running down the aisle and into your arms,

Back at home with you.

Until the sun rises, and we meet again.

Forever Love

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Softness in her spirit when she's alone with you, Where time lingers slowly yet stands perfectly still. In your presence, anywhere becomes sacred. Your eyes, a portal into past lives, Where two hearts beat in harmony and love is eternal.

Here, we meet again— Ancient souls, feeling timeless when I’m with you. Smiles filled with safety; kisses are just that— A forever love.

Softness in your spirit when you speak life to my soul, Quenching each other’s thirst, always room for more, The dessert that is your energy.

A peace in knowing our union is divine; I’ll never experience love like this again Until we meet again in the next timeline.

My forever love.

Soul of the Earth

By Jazmyn Edmonds

She sits in the center of an open field, Her tears rooted in the soil, Surrendering to the chaos is all she's ever known, yet her spirit remains still. The earth knows her tears, and she carefully listens, seeking meaning on the hill.

Her heart, so pure, yet her perception of her divinity so small. She searches for home in shattered glass, making sense of it all.

She loves, She laughs, She dreams.

Searching for meaning beyond her sorrows, Under scattered stars and weeping trees, She waits for whispers of what her heart burns to see.

Through rain, sun, and freshly fallen snow, At the witching hour, enchanted by a moonlit glow, She swims beneath ocean depths where her soul is free to cry, Crafted from the soul of the earth, She is love personified.

What I wish I knew

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Meet me at the river's bed, when the sun begins to set, and I will wait for you.

The crickets chirp, the narrow gate creaks and the wind comforts me with a gentle chill, while I make space for you.

I couldn't hear you when you cried out to me. The same song in the same wretched tune.

But here and now all alone, when the world finally rests

Under the stars and in the presence of the moon, where my essence won't let me hide

Now, my soul, screams out for you.

Your healing love, gone.

Like winter's sting and I, now six feet under.

With a pulse that only knows bliss when I'm with you...

In our meeting place,

At the river's bed,

While the crickets chirped,

the narrow gate creaked,

and the wind blew,

I saw you, for the first time.

Now, six feet under.

My Morning Song

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Gentle breezes from up above,

As the hummingbird sings her morning song.

How lucky am I to awake to the sun that is you?

Life goes on and time flies by, but with you, I find rest.

My breath, taken away by the divinity of your love.

Angels don't even compare to the grace of your touch.

Your smile is proof that God exists, as I've never felt anything more sacred.

Celestial is your aura, yet I am the lucky one

To know home is where you are.

My peace.

My muse.

My sweetest song.

My love, all for you.

Your Naked Perfection

By Jazmyn Edmonds

The moonlight gleamed from the midnight sky when I finally saw you.

Not the dress you wore often, like a dress that no longer fit.

But you.

In your naked perfection.

They say your imperfections make you beautiful, but when I call you perfect it's true.

The way you smile as you soften your gaze, entranced by the secrets of the Universe.

How you study your loved ones delicately as if embracing them for your first lifetime.

Your beauty rooted in the wisdom of your soul makes it impossible not to love you.

Under the stars and midnight sky, I thanked the moon for you.

You.

In your naked perfection.

Your Sweet Embrace

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Your sweet embrace

Lips of velvet and skin against mine

How can I forget, when my spirit cries out for you?

The softest whisper

From angelic voices

Where time and space don't exist

And only our love matters.

With every laugh and smile

From sunset to moon rise

My soul yearns for your love

Here and now, and every lifetime

My love undying

Our hearts intertwined in our secret place

Where there will be no question of my desire

Infinitely yours

Here and now

Always and forever.

Remembering, Love

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Delicate soul. 

How often you hide in the shadows of your mind to ignore the way your heart yearns for his love. 

An unquenchable thirst. 

The way your heart skips a beat when your souls meet through every smile and stare. 

Where words fill in the gaps of what the heart so desperately desires to say. 

Lost in a fever dream, with you, is my favorite place to wander. 

A dream from which I’d rather not wake. 

To dream a dream in where the fantasy distorts, and I float endlessly on the image of you I’ve created. 

My heart beats slower, and I can’t remember the last time I had this much hope for a feeling as fleeting as this. 

To be or not to be.

To love or be loved.

Sun Kissed

By Jazmyn Edmonds

Sun kissed.

Skin that perfectly masks her spirit. 

Scarred by the demons of her past. 

A self she no longer recognizes in the two way mirror. 

The mind

Whispering to the most hidden fragments of her soul. 

Wishing.

Hoping.

Waiting.

Longing, for the peace she so desperately craves.

Her warmth

Radiates a vibration so heavenly she stitches all the broken parts of her shattered heart together again. 

Love. 

A side of the mirror she yearns to see. 

And as she strips away from the distorted reflection 

She steps fearlessly into the unknown, 

Greeted by the beauty of the world around her.

The image clears.

Her mind quiets. 

Her spirit smiling back at her. 

Knowing. 

She was love all along.
