If this is your first time here, you should probably go read some funny haiku about lesbian scissoring. These are going to be really emo.

I’m so lost without
you. My heart’s percussion sits
in snare-like silence.
________
#198
The bed, the books, the
rituals used to be ours —
Are now just hours.

#199-#200
First night in our house
I blissfully bruised my hips
on the hardwood floor.
–
You were so excited.
“Who needs a bed?” You said.
“I have this. And you.”

Everyone you
love will leave. Time forgives,
but never concedes.

#202
How many times can
I cry over a crisis
of geography?

I tried to write it
down, but the better story
lives in your nearness.
________

There’s no stillness in
my heart. I will always love
you relentlessly.

I hate that I love the emo ones so immediately. How emo is that?
You do? Good. We can be emo together.
Totally love the emo ones–my closest friend would say they sound like me…
It’s the sort of day that 199-204 push me close to tears. But any other day I will still find them beautifully poignant. I appreciate your gifts. mlmoore57 from Twitter.
Thanks Michael.
I don’t think I’ve figured out how to love any other way than relentlessly.
And that has made life very difficult and painful at times.
Indeed.
