Unclenched by Aisha Malik




Unclenched


My jaw unclenched the second you sprung into my life

My mouth is a garden for you to tend to

I am listening to the conscience of your voice

Your name held along with my dreams

Your presence in my eyes

And my ears becoming more familiar with the sweetness of your story
