I used to think about ******* boys in open pastures
Clothes tangled on our bodies
Thin ******* down to the mid of quivering thighs and feverish hands pushing down against the yielding earth.

I used to think that maybe that was what being alive was
Intermingling *** and adventure in the sun
Watering the earth with the drippings of some wild, summer-heat driven clashing of sticky skin
I remember wondering what flowers grow from sweat and *****.

Years later, I made love to a sun kissed boy on the banks of a river
We were wild, passionate, fearless.
Never had I tasted anything so sweet as the sweat dripping onto our lips
I forgot about ******* boys in pastures
I began making love to a boy on the water
Then I realized that sweat and ***** grow passionate wildflowers.

comes in a text that says,

"I'll miss you every second. I love you. Goodbye."

instead of a final kiss.

In my dreams,
I know the feel of your lips on my neck better than anything else.
I know how tight you hold me when the night is cold and the wind is unsettling.
I know the sound of your laughter when it's in the other room and how loudly you sing in the shower.
I know exactly how rough your hands are from moving earth around in the garden.
I know how cold your feet are against mine;
how your hand fits perfectly into my lower back;
how your head feels resting on my inner left thigh.
I know every inch of you,
only in my dreams.
I hate missing you. Come home.

Read between the lines.
Pictures sometimes lie.
Why hasn't he called?
Do you like her more than me?
I can't sleep.
You never sleep.
You're still asleep?
I love you. I think.
I hate you. I don't.
I wouldn't blame you.
I wish I never loved you.
Please leave.
please don't

I'm sorry.
I keep apologizing for my brokenness.
Like it wasn't you who broke me.
I don't know how to write about emotional abuse, without feeling like the one who's wrong. I don't know how to write about my hurt when I feel it's my fault.

Scary yet essential.
I have forgotten how to do it.
