your skin was warm and glowing faintly in the light that subtly fell across the bed. the television hummed from the adjacent room, and i kicked my shoes off and snuggled my feet up close to my legs. you kissed each of my cheeks and all of our past, our fragile dangerous hearts, all of the pain and the fear fell away, at least for that moment. i saw stars in your heart, and for once, for once, i opened myself up completely, held out my fragile tiny heart for you to hold.

and you, you kept it true, you kept it fierce, you kept it beautiful in your hand.

and i'm learning how to share, how to be open again.

it's lovely, it's scary, it's true.
