    Riley Redgate
    “I think I'm beginning to understand
    how hearts fit together.
    Not like diseased carnations that lean against their crutches.
    Not like vines that twine tight, throttling their hosts.
    But like two trees:
    two systems of deep, untangled roots,
    two patterns of flowering branches,
    whose leaves drink their own sunlight
    and breathe their own air.
    Two trees with something slung between them,
    a hammock or a tapestry or a swing,
    some third, beautiful thing
    that neither would die without.
    Hearts fit together like hands.
    Not by necessity.
    By choice.”
