“we touch, with
no idea
of holding
and I say
it is okay
but
there is forever
on my breath;
there is always
on my hands
and I know you are
just a moment.”

“Maybe I’m not what you want; I’m just what distracts you until you get it. But I hope you…”
“I think I might always be jealous of the way sunlight touches your skin.”
“I will say it as many times as it takes for you to believe it: You are not a burden.”
“I imagine you in every empty seat I sit beside.”
