For You Poetry Emmeline Graham

This is a book for you, a book meant to warm your heart and empower your spirit. This book features two collections, one of amorous poetry and one of motivational poetry, totaling forty-two poems. Whether you need to be reminded that you're allowed to be human or you want to share your feelings for those you love, this book achieves both! Here's a taste of both collections!LipsYour lips found mine in the dark. It made a shine, it caused a sparkDeep within and all aroundBut it didn't make a sound. All the noise was deep in our throatsRivaling cries for land from boatsCries of passion and needIn the fashion of greed. And just as we took, we gaveOn my shores crashed your wave, On your trees struck my lightningAnd the universe came crashingAnd my heart began to meltFrom the true love it felt. And all of this came from one spark, From your lips on mine in the dark. HumanI am human. I am allowed to be human. I am allowed to make mistakesWithout raising my own stakes. I am human. I am allowed to be human. I didn't learn to walk without fallingYet here I am perfectly walking. I am human. I am allowed to be human. I am allowed to growBecause even among rocks, roots will flow. I am human. I am allowed to be human. I won't be afraid to spread MY roots fartherSo that I may stand up that much taller.
