“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.
