Laura Chouette
“I can not kiss you
unless you unraveled
every line of my heart
and declared with your lips
the beauty of our unfading love.”
Laura Chouette

Laura Chouette
“At a certain point,
you no longer hope;
you just keep on existing.
One day at a time,
for the rest of your life.

And that feeling
is not shallow but runs deep—
deeper than any happiness
or love could ever run.

A vein is a mere line
poets like me used to write on
and a lifeline where sailors
swim towards at night.

If we keep on writing and giving,
we grow on that existing line
with millions of words that save hope -
and thus give existence and life.”
Laura Chouette
