Every man I’ve ever loved has ended up moving at least a thousand miles away from me and so sometimes I wonder if I find security in all the distance. As if the only way I’ll ever truly be loved is from afar.
And so sometimes I wonder if you could love me the way I am, standing from three feet away. Seven days a week, four weeks a month, and 12 months a year, I just wonder if you could still love me.
I wonder.
I wonder if you could love me on the days where I don’t feel like talking and just want to stare out the window and play sad songs for hours.
I wonder if you could love me on the days where I lounge around in my pjs and forget to wash my hair or when I leave the lights on in the bathroom to keep away the nightmares.
I just wonder if you could still love me.
I wonder?
I know I think too much
And I know I say the wrong things more often than I do the right
And I know I doubt
And I know I’m far from perfect
And I know I’m far
But could you still love me?
You could still love me, right?

As it says in my tagline: I'm just a writer writing about love because that's what all the cool kids are falling into these days. However, the type of love I write about is based more on the likeliness of modern day heartbreak. I originally started this blog as an outlet for therapy. I believe writing soothes the mind and allows us to express our feelings, which is exactly what I do here -- but in the form of poetry and spoken word pieces. I began writing in 2016 and I like to think the content I put out is relatable and hard-hitting since there's nothing new under the sun. You'll come to find I struggle a lot but without struggles, there is no growth, and believe me, I am growing.
Slowly, I am working towards publishing my own works. Gallimaufry (one of the categories here on my blog) is one of them. I'm also in the process of writing, "war & peace", "where two hearts unify as one", & "i sold my heart to buy yours".
Until then, feel free to linger around and read a few of my pieces; if you like what you see, be sure to hit the follow button at the bottom of my page to keep up with my posts and like & comment as you wish!
Other than that, thank you for reading my About Me page!
I'll be seeing you,
B.K. Laurel
