as if his smile is the only thing
that could possibly matter

imprint…
my heart
is tethered
to a soul
i’ve always known,
in a person
i’ve yet to find
imprint.

maybe tonight
we just dissolve into the stars…
leaving gravity behind,
quieting our heads and trading
all our dreams and curiosities
between soul and skin.
i just. get. restless.
and i can’t stay too human
for too long… it’s too heavy.
i need to leave the atmosphere,
or pull your soul aesthetic closer;
close enough to taste moon dust
in the back of my throat.
and whether we actually transcend
or just lose all sense…
i don’t care.
let’s break open and
scatter and spill and spill…
our wild universes
colliding under these stars.

there’s that corner of your smile…
there’s that
corner of your smile,
the one towards me when you’re
in the driver’s seat…
how it lifts just a little when i say
something sweet
…add that to my favorite things.

it feels like
coming home after
being gone for too long
the way i gravitate to
the good in you…
how i just crave
that goodness in you.

it will not ask you to leave

now that i know you exist…
how do i not love you.
how do i not follow this gravity towards you.
now that i feel this, how could i ever not. feel. this.
i don’t know how i could ever be here in this life
and not. love you. i just have no choice.
but then… you made a choice.
and now i have no choice.
and i don’t know how…
how will i be here in this world
with you somewhere else in this world.
how. will i learn to pull myself out of this gravity
and not feel this anymore now that i have felt. this.
how…
now that i know you exist…
how do i not love you.
