i knew you once, and i knew you
like the view of the sea
from a window
(ferocious and beautiful)
my fingers pressed against
the glass to feel the soft tremors
of your distant pulse.
today consisted of deq, dmv (title and registration), switching the plates, sorting out pages of forms with a three year old chattering at my elbow, tickling nephews, dinner with friends, and the spurs/heat game.
considering how well all the car-related stuff went, i am stupid blessed. God is majorly good. (like, mind-blowingly.)
anyway. in addition to being blessed, i am also exhausted. so good night.

i forgot how gnarly his backstory is, then he showed up again today and i started rereading what i wrote and aaaoooowwwwwww.
