In other words

The I before you

I keep telling myself, there is more to me than just loving you! I try to remember all I am and have always been. There is a lot to boast about, I think… But it leads back to you again, because I know, you just made it all better!

It’s raining The ground smells like it has been kissed I’m joining in On the love fest of everything I have missed. I have a date One that has been decades in the making, Have to put the right music on But the rain droplets and the leaves are already dancing So I put down …

What activities do you lose yourself in? Drawing. That’s what’s great and painful about it. Since I lose track of time, I can only afford to draw when my schedule is clear for hours, and not a thing can interrupt the process, not even getting up to eat. When it doesn’t go my way, and …
