Break My Arms Around The One I Love

Digital painting of a tangerine that has been partially peeled. "YOU KISS THE BACK / OF MY LEGS AND I WANT TO CRY / ONLY THE SUN HAS / COME THIS CLOSE / ONLY THE SUN"

I am so sorry I wasn't there when you were little. I would have iced the bruises on your back.

"you say my name and i want to knit my bones into your bones, smooth away / the boundaries of our heartbeats. what i'm trying to say is that if the temperature / inside those wild pockets of interstellar dust hits right near absolute zero, / carbon monoxide and dihydrogen molecules condense together in the dark / nebula to form stars. if you're ready, i want to make you shiver like that."

"And maybe not destroying the thing you love, resisting that impulse, is the highest expression of love."

Orange-yellow shaded image of a branch of an orange tree. "I love you. I'm glad I exist."

"TELL ME / i. / about the sunlight and how it gets inside you / like fish hooks or / an old kind of hunger. / ii. / about your mother's addiction to drugstore / blush and smeared lipstick, / your father's penchant for the scent / of pipe tobacco, / how your house was a vintage animal with claws. / iii. / about the creek, your muddy feet, that time you kissed a boy / even though everyone said you shouldn't / because you were a boy too. / about the lavender sprigs you kept in a water glass / on your nightstand, / how he laughed, / how you loved him for the warmth of it."

"How do you love? / Like a fist. Like a knife."

Digital painting of a hand holding an orange. "...AND HERE IS ALL THE / LOVE / I WANTED TO GIVE YOU..."
