The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Our Time Stands Still

The sparks in your eyes like I just struck a lighter
You're beautiful to me, a passionate fire starter
I wish you could see yourself through my eyes
Never again would you doubt you're a prize 
Doubt me not, you are always worth fighting for
Our rights and wrongs we never need to keep score
Ever time is mutual opportunities to explore
To love each other like we've never felt before
When we walk together, your footsteps sync to the beats of my heart
Holding your palm laughing, talking, being each other's from our start
Feeling affectionate shallow passes through your hair
You're never again going to be alone, I am always there
When I am in your presence, our time stands still
You hold my heart closer than anyone else ever will

Scorpio, I have a brain injury and ADHD and reading anything can be challenging for me, your eloquence however is easy, sating and quenching and necessary like water. Just saying ;), xomo

I share that feeling! Especially as I like to write with more than one meaning with my compositions, the reader can glean for themselves what the poem means for them. After written and posted, the poem has a life of its own.

:) One of if not the best parts of this platform is that by and large I write for myself. But I'm truly finding that I enjoy what others see in my words for themselves I'm very happy to hear that you enjoy my work!
