Re:
“Do you know what you want?”
Yes, listen,
I want to hear glowing creamy light kiss my houseplants in the morning.
I want to feel the weight of my gravity against that ****** diner booth at 3am.
I want to dance until I can’t breathe between the upturned corners of my crooked and cracked teeth.
I want to hold every single cell in my body and watch them trickle through my fingers like sand.
I want to stand barefoot in the snow and watch it melt into an ocean, then a desert, then to dust. I am dust. We all are.
I want to see how small I am under city lights and smoke and breathe it all in.
Don’t forget to breathe out.
I want to drive until there is absolutely nothing left in my mirrors.
I want love to boil inside of me so I can help feed another starving heart.
I want the same internal convection in return.
I want nothing more than every square kilometer of the moon.
I wanted you.
