Baffy Basics

Sometimes writing poems let's me forget about the huge sums of debt I'm accumulating while at college

  • A Piece of Glass
  • Already Shown
  • Comes With a Cost
  • Was It Love?
  • Escape
  • Social Butterfly
  • I’ll Be Heard
  • I’ve Given Up
  • Love is Taken for Granted
  • Ruining Me
  • Only See What You Want to See
  • Ponytail
  • Unspoken
  • What is Love?
  • Who Knows?

A Few Days Off

Posted on March 3, 2023 by Baffy Basics

Sometimes a few days

off from work in a row

will do wonders to heal you

and to also help you grow.

IKEA

Posted on February 25, 2023 by Baffy Basics

Falling in love with you

is a lot like building

furniture from IKEA.

The directions are in Swedish

and I have no idea

what the hell I’m doing.

Twinkle in the Galaxy

Posted on February 23, 2023February 22, 2023 by Baffy Basics

There is nothing that

makes my heart go warm

on this planet or

in this galaxy

more than knowing that

twinkle in your eyes

only happens when

you’re looking at me.

Warmth

Posted on February 5, 2023 by Baffy Basics

In the south it may be warmer,

but it cannot spread warmth through me

as fast as knowing that I made you smile.

Twelve Waterfalls

Posted on February 4, 2023 by Baffy Basics

Twelve Waterfalls isn’t enough

to cover up the pounding of my heart

when you hold your hand out to me.

Nobody Tells You

Posted on January 12, 2023 by Baffy Basics

No one tells you that when you fall in love

you’ll fall in love with their snoring

and the rise and fall of their chest,

but

you

do.

I Would Follow

Posted on January 11, 2023 by Baffy Basics

I

would

follow

you

into

the

middle

of

the

ocean

in

the

middle

of

a

storm.

In

fact

I

Did.

Adrenaline

Posted on January 1, 2023 by Baffy Basics

Of all the dangerous, winding roads

I traveled to get to you,

none of them got my adrenaline pumping

the way a simple touch of your hand does.

Babycakes

Posted on December 29, 2022 by Baffy Basics

One Word.

One name.

And I am

completely

undone.

The Most Tremendous

Posted on December 29, 2022 by Baffy Basics

You can put in front of me

the most tremendous

glorious,

breath-taking view

in the world in front of me,

but all I will look at is you
