fleeing outside, flying kites
meandering barefoot in the twilight
we run wild
up hills to the parks
where we can get lost together
midday past dark
Where we would wander,
cold and wet
through rain-soaked forests
all of the red orange yellow-browns
of the leaves that cover the ground
hiding the dirt and roots from the trees
a month ago pounded underneath my bare feet
still tracing the patterns the trees create,
except with you, I don’t mind the wait
you kiss me,
unafraid,
hold me tight.
together, we laugh about the things we fear alone in the night
we talk about the past and the future, too
things that are important to you
me
family
a half-forgotten memory
And I feel heard and seen and felt so deeply
in a way that gives me energy
makes me want to
want to do,
want to be
be with you
but I’m also stronger on my own
you’re vanilla tea in my heart when I’m alone
down St.Laurent at sunset
lights strung up and down the boulevard
watching our city glow so bright
I feel so very loved, so light
The clouds & the colors paint the sky
now I’m with you
I don’t have to try
to be
anything except for me
nights spent in your arms
rain pours outside
but nothing can touch us,
intertwined
hidden, under covers
my best friend, my lover
Scratch, kiss, moan, bite
fuck me and it’s wild, it’s right
dancing wild
running free
absolutely irrationally
while logically
we make ourselves believe
the lies we tell ourselves
don’t think about
the day I have to leave
thoughts
