"Bloom" by Alyssa Stainer

May 7, 2017

A poem about falling in love and what it means to me. 

Bloom
i always thought falling in love
would be
exhilarating;
full of adrenaline
grasping at you
like you're all i have
and sometimes
it is like that
but most of the time its softer
quieter
i look at you
and the flower petals
inside my heart
bloom
you look like happiness
and light
you look like home
