Where You Were // Where You Are // Where I Am

I let my body

speak stories

and hope that you are listening

I was looking for someone

like you

I like to let

white noise

run under my sides

and fill my hands heavy

until the world is 

no longer loud

Because I was searching

for a fragility

to match mine,

wondering where

in your body

you store my words

and what “forever”

does to your heart

when you told me

Thank you

For pulling from me

pieces of myself

I'd kept so hidden

I forgot they were even there
