“We are five year olds in the playground again, you are chiming, 'Who do you love who do you love who do you love?' My cheeks are stained so red they feel like berries on a summer day.

'Is it me, is it me?' You whisper into my trembling mouth, every smile you've ever smiled is suddenly pressed against my teeth 'because it's you, even if it's not me, it'll still be you.”
