Strip me of my dignity and
Show me why you're into me
Polish my shoes
when you're
finished digging into me
Skip breakfast
snack on my flesh
Pick up
where we left off
Throw me on a boat
row me over a waterfall
Fall
deep
into my
soul
Skip the formalities
I want it all
Bring me home
Textures and textiles
Tell your friends
show me off
Touch my
-
skin
Twirl me up
in a whirlwind
I won't get dizzy - this time
Confidently
spinning webs with me
Over and under
barricades
crumbling
Nothing in-between us
but
energy
alchemy
Shifting into
one
melody
Tranquility
taking over
my
sanity
There is freedom
in knowing
YOU
About the Creator
Tanya Lei
A poet, if nothing else.
In a blank space, captivating words flow freely to create something that has not existed before.
From my mind, to yours.

Returning You to the Crowd
There is a kind of love called "Returning You to the Sea of People." I used to think that when two people separated, it was because they no longer loved each other, or because someone had committed a mistake so heinous it brought the relationship to an end.

After the Storm
After the storm of winter snow there sat a small bear by the name Ted, of course. He loves the snow and likes to roll around in it making all sorts of trails and whatever he has a mind to do. He wondered where all the people are, but in a way, he is hoping that they are all snug in the homes maybe drinking hot chocolate-one of his favorite drinks with mini-marshmallows and eating something homemade for he likes this winter wonderland all to himself to romp and play and maybe even catch some fish down by the river.

The spacing and line breaks really mimic movement falling, spinning, twirling. It reads like choreography on the page.
Awww, this was so lovely and beautiful! 😍😍😍😍😍
Oh, I love this Tanya! "I won't get dizzy-this time" that's such a beautiful line.
Nice. Vulnerability here feels powerful, not fragile.
Beautiful!
