I Looked At Him

So, instead of my usual posts about life and my take on certain aspects of it, I decided to share a piece that I wrote last semester to  read in front of my creative writing class. I want to make my blog honest, passionate, different and most of all- most of me. This poem is definitely not my best and I also wrote it in 10 minutes, but I wanted to start small as far as sharing my personal pieces. Writing challenges me and keeps me on my toes but its something I love and it makes me feel free. I hope to share much more with all of you in the future- praying that I actually have one in writing. Anyways, thank you for reading and thank you for the continuous support, this is a poem I wrote inspired by my guy♥

I Looked At Him

Danielle Rabe

I looked at him and I saw light.

His light and my love all tangled in brown eyes.

Messy complexion, organized chaos.

That was us.

He was us, too.

I looked at him and I saw poise.

No rushing, not even to me.

Only fixed serenity and passionate love.

I looked at him and I saw my dreams.

He held my hand and I felt fire.

I felt fire in the deepest part of my being.

He pushed me— not too much and just enough.

Without his tact, I’m undone.

I looked at him and I saw a future.

Paisley bedspread, little pink people.

Fluffy dogs and warm coffee mornings.

I looked at him and I saw the world.

But, I wondered.

I wondered what he saw when he looked at me.
