Polyamory

poem by: Dakota Iris
Written on Dec 11, 2018

Us.
We are a circle brought together by love.
A Love each of us denied for far too long, 
When I look I look at you, I don't see me, or him, or them.
In each and every one of you, I see you.
A beautiful force, so different from one another, yet so perfectly alike in the way that we love.
Each an element of their own beautiful force.
An ocean, kind and beautiful, yet vast and mysterious.
A flame of passion to never be put out, but fight and strive for what it knows is right.
The soil, so rich and real, humble yet so sure of itself.
We are a circle of beautiful love, each we express in an original way.
I know if because of love I fall, you will be there to catch me.
Our roots run deep and even to see us, is a magical world of contempt and fulfillment. 
Because of you I learned that my once cold heart has room for more love than I could imagine, 
What I thought made me unlovable only showed me that I was looking in the wrong direction, 
To hold you, laugh with you, cry with you, simply to talk to you has shown me that my heart is indeed not cold, only capable of more love than I thought I could hold.

Music and video games. Ace bandages and folded socks. Soda cans and taco bell, Beanies and hair ties. Late nights and parties, Red arms,and bruised ribs. Smiles and laughs, Deep cries, and heavy mass. Empathy and forgiveness... Read more
