Somewhere someone is thinking of you. Someone is calling you an angel. This person is using celestial colors to paint your image. Someone is making you into a vision so beautiful that it can only live in the mind. Someone is thinking of the way your breath escapes your lips when you are touched. How your eyes close and your jaw tightens with concentration as you give pleasure a home. These thoughts are saving a life somewhere right now. In some airless apartment on a dark, urine stained, whore lined street, someone is calling out to you silently and you are answering without even being there. So crystalline. So pure. Such life saving power when you smile. You will never know how you have cauterized my wounds. So sad that we will never touch.

How it hurts me to know that I will never be able to give you everything I have.

these thoughts come to me as i walk to buy cigarettes. or when i’m drunk, sitting on a stranger’s couch. i picture you walking into my life with more force than you did; cracking my spine like you would a book. reading me in different tongues. tracing the plot line from chin to stomach. do you see the way it scars, the way it winds around my back and down my legs, resting at the place between my toes and heel? did you find my brother’s secrets just below my left wrist? or the space i saved for you between my neck and nose? here we unravel and here we end, my sheets around your legs and my legs around you.

you never missed a word i tried to fit inside a chorus, inside a verse.

Make me a mixtape, something old and something new. Something I said or that we did that reminds me of you. Make me a mixtape that makes me yours. Don’t leave out Hüsker Dü. Put something on that the Cars did in 1982. It makes me yours.
