frequent
peanut butter milkshake
sips, hiding between
book shelves -
the store lights
are too loud
but we
create each other
soft and smoothed-over;
I am nestled into you.
warm breath, against
my hair; books release
all of their little words,
stitching us together

I felt the need to post again.

despite this being an excellently written poem, what amazes me is your age of 18. Gives me hope that poetry does have a future.

Fairly swanky. Good images but I think the flow could be a little better.

quiet little intimacies that no one ever knows. I dig.

this is so cute, even though the thought of a peanut butter milkshake is so gross to me. haha i hate peanut butter. that's just personal weirdness though.

"I am nestled into you."
That's so cute! It's such a warm image though. -
This is stunning. I love how you put so much into so little space; it's beautiful. My favourite lines:
"the store lights
are too loud"
For whatever reason, they stood out to me. Thanks for sharing ♥ -

the store lights

interresting, peanutbutter milkshakes are my favorite even though i have to make it myself cuz nobody serves it like that. ^_^ You use your descriptions short and sweet, but very much to the point. I like that. The title, I don't quite understand but i'm sure it makes sense to you.
