Its the lasting feeling of being held with a firm but gentle grasp that says “I’m yours.” I am appreciated by love. It’s the kindness in a touch and the handling with care that says, “I’m thankful for you.” I am appreciated with love. It’s those three words that when said, come from your soul […]
I saw a beauty in your eyes that stirred up my very existence. I questioned everything I thought I knew when it comes to the beauty of a woman. But you’re not just any woman. It’s more that just the radiance of your smile beneath the fullness in the curve of your lips. It’s deeper […]

It’s knowing without hesitation, even when you think everyone else can’t see, that you’re beautiful. Sketched from the inside, it’s a masterpiece of perfection. Its the ability to recognize that your strength conquers with the absence of fear. Difficulty is a dismal land that’s a far and unfamiliar place. It’s the certainty that is the […]
Falling in love happens when falling out of fear happens. Falling in love happens when falling out of doubt happens. Falling in love happens when falling out of expectation happens. Falling in love happens when falling out of control happens. Falling in love happens when falling out of complacency happens. Falling in love happens when […]
The surface feels safe but it’s what lies beneath that makes the difference. What’s not seen but still felt. When you reach deep, you reach true.
