i wonder what this weekend will be like when we chat. and tuesday night. man. im gonna be a mess. i will keep trying to think of today. today showed me what we have, despite the circumstances, and what we could have one day. i hope to connect with you soul-to-soul, even if its just as friends. theres something special there either way. youve said so many things to me that no one else ever has. things i couldnt ever fathom being told to me. things about yourself and about me and about this situation. youve made me feel things ive never felt, care about things ive never cared about, and not care about things that i would usually be completely indulged in. ITS FOOTBALL SEASON AND ALSO THE RED SOX ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS! but really i couldnt care less- i just wanna know how my girl's day has been. even now, several weeks(months?) after i have typed this, as we are frozen and i am freezing, i am hoping that you are warm and so is your smile. my eyes are so tired right now and im gettin very sad thinking about this. i want to close my eyes and think about today, and imagine it happening again sometime soon, but in person. so please enjoy your day/night/twilight and i'll be back soon mija!
'I'll love you, dear, I'll love you
Till China and Africa meet,
And the river jumps over the mountain
And the salmon sing in the street,
'I'll love you till the ocean
Is folded and hung up to dry
And the seven stars go squawking
Like geese about the sky.
'The years shall run like rabbits,
For in my arms I hold
The Flower of the Ages,
And the first love of the world.'
—As I Walked Out One Evening, W. H. Audennot for you,
i just want to hang the ocean up to dry
somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond
any experience,your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near
your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skillfully,mysteriously)her first rose
or if your wish be to close me,i and
my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;
nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility:whose texture
compels me with the colour of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing
(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain has such small hands
will I celebrate my birthday while looking at this view, with a cheap bottle of wine in my hand?
I can only hope so.
oh it's cool. i told her about how it's hard being around someone you like when you don't like yourself and how trying to cover up the bad parts makes you distant and that's the worst you can do. then i made fun of her and told her that was my good side.
maaaaaan
Like, i have nights where I miss having you an arms length away (at most). I'm recalling everything clearly, beyond the vague account of it all i wrote down. The smell of you, the texture of your lips and the moisture in your mouth, how your eyes looked in the darkness, the sound that plastic covering made in the window when the wind blew into it. Everything.
man, I totally emo'd out earlier today. god, I mean, I milked it because I so often miss when I was truly sad back in the day so when I started to feel bad I egged it on like all hell, was almost laughing at the comedy of it as I was shopping around the grocery store and just had near tears forming behind my glasses, carelessly throwing a bread loaf and stuff into my cart and looking so unhappy/not caring/sad.
