Day 88: “This Time of Year”


This time of year

feels like a warm hug

a cup of hot cocoa, when the marshmallow sticks to your lip

sitting on the vent with a blanket, filling it up with warm air

finding the perfect gift

when your face just starts getting numb after walking in the cold, making it harder to form words

staying up all night praying for a snow day

string lights cozifying your place

your cat trying to eat the artificial tree

candles, lots and lots of candles

bundling up just to still have your toes feel cold

nostalgia, so much nostalgia it hurts

music that makes you feel young, loved, comfortable

warmth emanating from everywhere


It just feels like magic

Day 11: “Love Feels Good”


It feels good to not be judged

It feels good to be loved

And held

And comforted


It feels good to be squeezed tightly

And get a kiss on the head


It feels good to breathe with someone else

And relax


It feels good to love someone

It feels good to be there

It feels good to be seen


It feels good to know someone

And love to see them happy

It feels good to make them happy


It feels good to be happy


It feels good to be in love
