it’s been empty since day one.
up all night, got demons to fight.
this picture reminds me of f.
f. came back from california last night and cleaned up after the tidal wave of depression that laid ruin to me this weekend, just rubbed my forehead and smoothed everything out, reminded me to fight. what power. when he wraps his arms around me i am safe from anything. when he says he loves me, my worries drain immediately away. when he smiles it glues back together all the broken parts of me. he is probably the only reason i am alive right now, all things considered.
i love that man. i love everything about him. the way his skin smells. his grammatical errors. the way he breathes into my ear when he’s on top of me. the way his face looks when he’s concentrating. his body in the dark when he is sleeping. the feeling of his hands on my waist. when he talks so quiet that nobody understood what he said. the way his eyes change color.
i’m so glad he’s back home.
control me.
