one of these days i will stop falling in love with angel-headed boys residing entire oceans and plateaus away from me
the ways that their honeysuckle words drip from their lips like honey only to cover me consume me drown me
i'll cease thinking about how golden hair would feel between the tips of my fingers how their voice would sing and reverberate within the hollow prison of my rib cage reciting rimbaud rilke camus
i will stop being tripped up by the unyielding curve of pale cupid-bow lips and lithe long fingertips tracing collars shoulderblades eyelids
