If you ever break my heart and leave me. I will never listen to The Smiths ever again. Please don’t say anything, just let me continue. See when I fell in love with you, it was to the sound of Morrissey’s voice. He made me believe that I would get what I want. And when you and I were finally together, he made me believe that to die by your side would be the most wonderful thing in the...

Of that first time you held me
And sometimes love is not hard at all. But rather a shared scarf by the river on a sunday afternoon.
The peril of searching is that you so often regret...
I’m going to move away from my computer, get ready, make myself pretty, and remember that I am the freaking iron fortress.

Of cockroaches
And sometimes they didn’t speak
just stared at the floor, the ceiling, the folds of the drapes
on a summer day.
And sometimes they fluttered down
landing softly on closed eyes.

Of Uncertainties at the Midnight Hour
But how? How do I know that this is all real? That it’s not an elaborate lie that he thought off in his sleep one night. And one of these days, he’ll turn around and tell me that he doesn’t really love me. That all the times he said, ‘I love you, he really meant, I’m sorry. I can’t love you.
How do I sleep so soundly thinking of him when at any moment he could...

of certainty
We are going to be together forever, not because I said we are, not because I have the ability to see into the future, not because it’s our destiny to be together forever but because this is what I believe. Whatever forever means, even if we are apart, we are always going to be together, because in the same way that our past is contained in a hundred thousand million words, our future will...

of opening doors
Today I told him that I was insecure without him. If he questioned it I would pretend that I was teasing, a phrase he is familiar with, but didn’t question it.
Who is he?
This face that occupies my brain at all times.
Who is he who dares to love me better than I love myself?
I told him I was abandoned as a child
And there was something in his voice when he asked,

I want to write an old fashioned love letter
to the lover that I have always wanted but never thought I’d find.
Just to tell him that he is the first thing I think of when I open my eyes, and he is the last thing I think of when I lay my head down and that he is the star of all my dreams.
To remind him everyday that I am utterly devoted to him.
That he is the means and the ends of my happiness.
So maybe he can feel a smidgen of...
