i wanted him in the bluntest way. i
wanted his lips, his hands, his arms. i
wanted him the way the ocean wants
the shore, constantly reaching and running back.
i wanted him the way rain wants to
fall, the way the sun wants to shine, the way words want to be read.
i wanted him to infinity, to the millionth degree, no amount of rain could douse the fire i had in me for him.
