My uncle met his wife when he was 50, he told her “ i wish i could of met you sooner, so i could of loved you longer”. I felt so grateful i met you so young, before my life even began, i felt a connection with you i never felt with anyone, we were children of fate, everything felt right next to you, everything was okay when i was wrapped in you, my youth was given to you as a gift- no, please take it, i dont want it anyway.

Refusal.

I fell for you the way something breaks, slowly, then all at once, a new form, a new shape.
