let the million questions running through my head
stop on my tongue
they call this self preservation
not letting myself ruin this good thing
the best thing ive known

i wonder if one day you will think i am not enough for you
and i wonder if you have already been feeling this way for some time
but for you i turn my soul inside out
and let you inspect every crack and crevice along this inverted rib cage
i love you into the ground

soft white snow
you told me you loved me
felt like a little kid
nose to nose
under the quiet cover of the blanket

how much love can i give
and i still fall short
chasing some version of some person i’ve never met
you have all of me
and yet it is not enough
and now you have taken something from me
from who i thought i was
i no longer recognize myself
and so what is my fate

i aimed in the dark
shot ricocheted, finding you
how are you boundless?

i give pieces of myself to people i meet
like a souvenir, my heart
some treasure it
some forget it
some throw it away.
i give give give
until i have nothing left
a hollow soul with no more to give.

i miss the person you used to be
and the person i will become,
for i know it was ill-timed fate
that pushed us apart.
have no fear.
perhaps in another lifetime

i told the stars about you, you know.
i’m not sure if they listened,
but i told them everything.
your eyes, your lips, your smile, your hands.
i sat in the grass for hours
the moonlight grazing over the field.
i told the stars about you
because i couldn’t tell the wind
for fear it would whisper the wrong things in your ear.

the rain falls quietly tonight,
don't you think?
do you remember the old pitter-patter of rain?
back when rain meant getting mud on our dresses
jumping in puddles
coaxing worms from their homes?
i remember
the cold made our cheeks flush and stuck to the inside of our lungs
we’d laugh and laugh, sides heaving
ah
i think the rain falls quietly tonight
