This Is What Is Left When You Lose Someone You Love
Look into my eyes. Brush the hair back from my face. Kiss me. Kiss my lips. Again. Tell me not that you love me, but how the summer breeze blows through those white blinds. Tell me of the sausage and onion pizza you ate for dinner last night, the stupid joke your boss told during break, your impossible fear of spiders. I don’t know, exactly, what it is I want to hear. But I know I like the sound of your voice, the way you grab my chin, and pull my face to yours, stare into my eyes.
You Handed Me Your Heart On A Page Of Notebook Paper
I heard from you. For the first time in ages. And when I did, I stopped everything. I dropped my keys. I set my purse on the table. I fell into the couch and read the letter from you. Then read it again, soaking every word into my skin, my brain, my cells, which, at this moment, were buzzing with anticipation. There was a rush of emotion, of feeling, of dizziness as I felt your every word fill my mind with the sound of your voice. A voice I haven’t heard in months, maybe even years. It was still you.
I’m Sorry I Couldn’t Stay
We travel through towns and crowded cities, everywhere we go laying our claim on the land with our Converse and combat boots, initials carved into tree bark and dandelion seeds set free into the wind. But we’ve reached a crossroads here. You want to step left, And I want to run right into warm sun and possibility until you lose sight of me like summer light behind autumn storm clouds. We used to know each other. Like the dirt beneath our fingernails, like the squish of mud between our bare toes.
This Is What I Want To Tell You, Even Though I Can’t Be With You
I know it feels like I’m a thousand miles away. I know you’re sitting in that one bedroom apartment, staring at those white walls, wondering who I am and where I’ve gone. I know one moment I was there, laughing, our toes touching bare and cold under the blanket. I know one moment we were snacking on those sugary candies, the ones that make my teeth ache, and laughing about who knows what on that stupid, late-night comedy show.
One Day I’ll Return To You
I watched the blinking light atop the plane’s wing fade red to black— the only brightness in a clouded sky. Hardly distinguishable beyond the wing’s edge were stars, blurred specks, miniature planets born again from dust. I watched the light, tried to see where ground met sky, where the horizon peeked around clouds, where the earth was recognizable, safe. We were going so fast, it was almost as if we were still. Which made me think of us, the rush of our love and becoming.
The Dilemma With The Phrase, ‘I Love You To The Moon And Back’
Can we all take a minute to figure out what this phrase really means? I love you to the moon and back. Because way too many people have been using it lately, and I find it extremely cliché. Why the moon? Why not the sun? Why not some planet such as Pluto or Mars? Actually, apparently Pluto got demoted and is now considered a dwarf planet, but that is beside the point… I guess I just do not understand why it is that specific distance. The moon is, on average, 238,855 miles away.
