we might not be on the same side of the globe,

but we are under the same sky.

not at the same time,

but we see the same stars at night.

and maybe that's all that really matters.

because this girl

has silenced the screaming in my head

and i need to know

exactly what this means.

love has softened my sharp edges,

making me sweeter.

i went from wanting to destroy the world,

crush it like chalk in my hands,

to wanting to breathe in every summer

and let it linger.

love has made me more lovable,

the storms in my gray eyes

clearing to sunny skies.

i want eighteen to come quicker,

because then our home can be a possibility.

nothing loud, except for music

nothing cruel, except for poetry

a swing for us to sit on

and star gaze.

and when i point out leo,

she'd point out my scars

and tell me they were her favorite constellations.

so love has softened me,

and i think that's okay.

how can you write poetry about a girl who is walking poetry?

how can you paint a girl who is walking art?

how can you write a song for a girl who is walking music?

how can you fall for a girl who is walking love?

the answer is easily.

i want to bathe with you. there's something raw and real that spills out of my every pore when i take baths and i want to have you bare witness. here, let me wash your hair. i always feel loved when you let me play with your hair. let the foamy water submerge us. maybe this is baptismal, the way my love for everything around me swims into the water and eats us whole. i want to have a home with you where i bake foods ive never made before. and we are always happy. the bed is big enough for both of us and our parents can't try and get in. a place where we always just throw our shoes off at the door and end up losing them. a place where my yellow gloves ive started wearing when i do the dishes are hung to dry in the window. a place where there's a tub that's big enough for both of us. in that tub, i want to bathe with you.
