UNBOUND II


 

unbound II

estefaaano_writes 


-

      i’ve loved the love itself,  

and the idea of something, 


binding us together


you know that love carves deeper

                                            than bone and names.


i’ve seen time tell tales 

about that subtle elixir,

heart hammering against ribs


like a caged animal.


                                     it’s collectively,

                                     unconsciously composed.



i lost my head in the high ridges,

        holding out for the fog to lift,  


but I found it floating in rain clouds

                              it was smiling down,


cool and tender against my skin.


                                                                                  

                                                            do you feel the love? 

because i do.



why won't you just let it flood free? 



pour out of your soul,

                 until we're both drowning.

    it's that yearning for someone to meet you at that same depth, to let it all go and just be in the love.

    I love it! so beautiful and vulnerable.

    The image of finding your head 'floating in rain clouds' after being lost in the 'high ridges' is a beautiful metaphor for clarity found in surrender.

    Brilliant.

  6. this is like that spiritual connection you feel with someone, where words aren't enough.

  8. tbh, we all know how good you are in writing estefaaano_writes. always been an inspiration to me.

    I love a lot of your pieces. And thisssss the progression from the abstract 'love itself' to the concrete, almost physical longing to 'drown' in it, is masterfully done (as always).

    wish I could meet you soon. 🤍

  13. the plea to 'let it flood free'… that's the ultimate vulnerability you hope for in a true partner.
    very relatable.
