When I Get Lonely

#28daysoflovepoems by Kiara

Words spoonfeed me

When I am hungry

Verse after verse

Slant rhyme birthed from quiet time and concentration

It’s not a traditional type of relationship situation

But these words tell me everything I want to hear but

can not express

I guess my mouth don’t have the gusto my mind has just yet

Anyway

Until my voice catches up with my brain

Me and these words- we hold hands and we pray

We dance and I thank them for all the magic we made

In my notebook on my desk and

In the poems I haven’t even written yet

Loving so good

I can’t get a word in edgewise 

Everyday in February 2026, The House of Psalm will post an original poem about love — self-love, romantic love, parental love and so much more. #28daysoflovepoems | IG @thehouseofpsalm @kiaraleewrites
