My name is Heather Mirassou and I come from America’s Oldest Winemaking Family, I have been writing poetry since I was twelve years old. My favorite poet at the time was Leo Buscaglia, who writes about love. I sent him a letter and a few of my poems and he wrote back rewarding me with a signed book of poetry and an inspirational letter. He said I was a NATURAL POET and I should continue writing poetry and learn and practice as much as I could. I will always remember his influence on my writing and my will to follow in his footsteps. The symbolic interpretation of my last name, Mirassou is: > Mirror of the soul >One who reflects within >The watcher of light >A woman who sees truth beneath the surface

As If Only We Exist – by Heather Mirassou


Loving you is like pressing my ear
to the hollow of your wrist,
as if the rhythm there
could teach me how to breath.

Your lips on mine are like a secret
I've always known,
as if every pause and sigh
was written into my bones.

Being in your arms is like 
sinking into a room
only for us,
only our heartbeats.

Your touch lingers like 
a shadow that refuses to leave,
as if even light
can't pull itself away from you.

And when you leave,
it is like forgetting how to move,
as if the part of me that knows
I remain behind, waiting.
