you came and you went just like that you were here and then you weren't my calendar reminds me that we spent 18 days together but every bone in my body swears it felt more like 18 hours
i remember seeing your face across that enormous room for the first time in months and everything inside me set itself on fire there's really no words to explain the way that feels no way that makes sense to someone who hasn't experienced it themselves
but let me try
it was a little like breathing for the first time in a very long time waking up from a nightmare and gasping for breath the comforting realization that it was only just a dream it was kind of like that
it was a little like holding your breath underwater and finally coming up for fresh air filling your lungs with sunshine and summer and being happy it's simple it was kind of like that
you think you'll cry but you don't there is no time for tears you spent months crying them and there's simply no place for them any longer there is only room for happiness
you'll wake up the next morning if you ever even fall asleep and he will startle you because for months you slept alone and this body feels unfamiliar and strange but you love it and it is home
you will try to find the right words just as i am now to tell people about it how amazing it is was and you will fail you will fail every time but you try anyway
so yes, it was a little like that and a whole lot like nothing i have ever experienced before.
