I
think you should know that when I woke up today I was tangled in
morning breath and your whispers.
I think you should know that I'm dreaming with swollen lips and bleeding cheeks because I keep biting down to stop myself from saying what's on my mind,
I think you should know my mouth is betraying me and when I brush it off, what I mean is, please for the love of everything, know that I am terrified.
I think you should know, despite the fact that I am trembling with needs, I don't want it. I don't want to count down the seconds and drag out my day.
I don't want to constantly dislodge my heart from the back of my throat when you don't even know that you jammed it there.
I don't want to write instructions on how to breathe on my walls because suddenly I'm constantly needing a reminder.
