This is the first of my mix tape series on the love I’ve lived.
We’ve been through love, hate, and a massive gray area. He is now one of the closest people to me. He understands me. He sees things the way I do. He and I have a love for each other that comes with the territory of having been through the fire. He is my best friend. We can argue and fight and work it out all in a matter of hours. None of it is awkward, either, because… well… we see each other without genitalia. This is the first for my first.

I’ll catch up to you
“ But me, my voice will echo in your head for infinite hours and it will make you warm and content. My hands on your back, fingertips drawing circles, drawing ships and oceans and stories about fish-it will make you feel like all the possibilities in the world are waiting for you.. for me.. for us.”
Someday I will show you this, all of this, the letter, yes but also, the bruises on my thighs documented by vague references to men I loved(lusted) for a bit. I’ll show you this because you’ll want to see it because you’ll want to know me, really know me and you won’t care that it makes you burn with jealousy because I’m still ultimately yours.. You won’t care because ultimately you’ll feel the cold tip of my nose buried in your neck each night. You won’t care because after all the others we’ll have sunday mornings together that don’t happen by accident because of too much drinking the night before but because its our favorite day. You won’t care because you’ll know that really, despite all the others before, you were the one I always knew before I knew you.
