I hope when you look at the stars, you think of me.

Not just once, but every time.

I hope there’s a star for every reason you love me,

until the sky is so full of us that the night can’t hold anything else.

I hope my love reminds you of the way the sky softens at dusk,

that quiet lavender melting into something warmer.

I hope that when you feel the weight of the world,

you see the pink in the clouds and think of my lips,

soft, pressing against yours—reminding you,

you are loved.

I hope the thought of my kiss

makes your stomach flutter,

like the first time, like the hundredth time,

like always.

And I hope our forever outlives every star,

because even when they burn out,

my love for you won’t.

i rise from the dust of memories in the chill of endless nights the weight of forgotten cities press on my hammered skin each step is a slow reckoning with a hollowness inside a vast plain of lost bones ...fractured dreams stretches before me i collect shards of...loss remnants of voices long silenced a slow march through ruins where flesh and metal merge the air tastes of rust and the ancient echo of sorrow i follow the path of scars etched upon the earth searching for a fragment of life a trace of unyielding fire in the absence of soft light i become a relic in time an archive of hunger of battles fought within...and without i hold the weight of broken legends seeking to mend an infinite rift

music to my ears

I would have stood by you through the storm, the hail, or the wildfire. I will love no other the way I loved you.

But darling do you really think your absence will make me forget you? Oh, even your absence stitches your face on every corner of my heart.

Why can't I stop feeling this way?

[aatifameer]

You are the fire licking at my bones,

the hunger in my ribs,

the blood in my veins.

.

Say my name. Just say it.

"Come here, come to me"

I'll leave my funeral, rip through the grave,

claw my way from the dark,

just to die in your arms again.

.

Ask me,

What color are my lips?

What taste burns on my tongue?

What fills my eyes?

I'll say your name.

"Now my Intoxication is Devotion, a Hymn to Infinity."

.

Bite me. Tear me open.

Let my skin remember your teeth,

let my wounds whisper of you.

Wound me. Heal me. Scar me.

A mark of you, forever mine.

~Aatif Ameer
