    “love, be patient with me
    as i shed this skin
    as i lie old patterns at these feet
    as i burn and sweat
    as i'm fed by this stream
    i can be fierce while this vulnerable
    i can seem far away
    as these wounds i lick
    as i writher, moan, cry and hiss,
    and awaken within this
    river carrying me home
    as i take in this last breath
    generous was this passing death
    praise be the person i was
    as i gasp life into
    the warrior
    i am now.”

    tempts him to blurt out stories
    better never told.”

Love the crystals falling out of your bra and the feathers stuffed in your pocket. Love the scariness of what you know is held in your little heart locket.”
