that december, i found my body had really been his all along. this movie is breaking my heart. i could have written volumes about the way he was ****ing me, or the reasons he loved me, or his favorite ways to die. and then the summer came, and i gave my skin, my heart and liver and lungs away to him. but i kept singing in the morning for him. i was wrapped up in a blanket beside a stolen lake, i was going to take his arms with me. i was hot and dehydrated and losing my faith. and then he was kneeling at my feet and i felt my womb swell up for him. i thought he was my needle in a haystack, my one in a million love story, i would have believed forever. i thought that time couldnt keep up with us and that the whole world would just remain still while we were alive. i thought the wicked pieces had been washed away in the torrents of calm we had, only, alone

Love, risk, learn. If one can't meet the other halfway, there is no finish line. Another deep, thought-provoking, & personal piece.
