joaquin 4d
how cruel, the fleeting time passed
our days together felt like mere seconds

but you have etched your name
into my heart, and i am now home
my jacket still smells like you
my eyes have not gotten over you
and my mind is full of you

you should come back soon
joaquin May 25
i have never once
loved in moderation
that is my constant

to love any less
makes no difference
it will hurt all the same
you deserve nothing less
joaquin May 18
i do not love halfway
i love you like a warm blanket
on a cold night
joaquin May 12
i am reminded of you
in the overlooked
in the mundane

in the gentle banging
of our laundry machine
noisily washing our clothes

in the tapping of water
on last night’s dinnerware
that you forgot to wash

in the uneven warmth
of our bed’s duvets
as you’ve rolled yourself up in it

you are part of the world
and thus the mundane world
is now made beautiful
everything reminds me of you
so much so that if you were to disappear
everything would cease to exist

joaquin May 7
come
lay down with me
the sun is coming up

we’ll swallow its rays
and have sunlight flowing
from our fingertips
joaquin May 3
you sound lovely today
through the phone speakers

you’re as beautiful as ever
in choppy 240p video quality



oh, to reach through the screen
and play with your hair

to dive into my monitor
so my head could rest on your lap
such distance, so cruel
the governor of desire
joaquin May 3
i never understood
how love in silence
is any less
than love that is loud

so you mean to tell me
you think less of the fact
that you alone get to see
this lovely version of me?
for your eyes only.
