{i went to sleep}
Waning Gibbous Moon in Aries {still}
i went to sleep //
and woke up next to you
messy hair and morning breath
limbs intertwined
bare skin; soft
you whispered good morning
pulled me in close, like you always do
kissed my neck
ran your hand down the side of my body
as awakened eyes met
and for just a moment
time stood still
just the two of us
A familiar feeling
wrapped in love
nowhere to be
nothing to do
the sweetest pause...
// and then I woke up.

Day 21/28: This Aries moon + Venus in Cancer has got me feelin’ some sort of way these past few days. Emo love songs about distant love, heart literally aching and tears making their way out periodically when a certain song comes on, or lyric hits a nerve; day dreaming about love and connection those that came before, the ones i’m calling in; watching Netflix rom-coms. And what I don’t like acknowledging but will for sake of transparency— I don’t often feel lonely, but I’m feeling the craving to have a man in my presence, someone that I have an intimacy and trust with, that I can just snuggle up with and exist in the same space. I miss being held and touched [again, thanks Venus in Cancer for these vibes *insert eye roll here *]. So today, i’m just going to keep it short and sweet, and spend the rest of my evening enjoying being in this beautiful little hearth space that is my apartment, around my plant babies that all got new outfits today [translation: they got potted in pretty ceramics], watching more Netflix rom-coms. Love and extra tight distance air hugs to anyone who is feelin’ the— longing to be witnessed and embraced— sort of feeling. You’re not alone.
With gratitude and always LOVE,
