Untitled

by samwarde

there are invasions that arrive with fire and there are invasions that arrive with kindness a voice that stays longer than the conversation a presence that lingers after the room is empty a light so gentle you never think to guard yourself from it that was how it happened not all at once but slowly enough for me to believe i was still my old self while entire constellations were being rewritten beneath my ribs
