to map sunrises...

one day I will tell my daughter to touch herself before she ever lets a man do it for her, to learn her body-secrets and the shape of pleasure. I will tell her that San Francisco always keeps your heart. that her skin is a blank canvas, that hair grows, the value of the right kind of disrespect. that the older we get, the more we need the people who knew us when we were young. I will tell my daughter to give away the secrets that keep her up at night, and that there is never a wrong time to love someone, but sometimes a wrong way. I will teach my daughter to travel without makeup; that sometimes forever means morning and sometime

introduction.

--- if a man loves you he sees your walls like a canvas for him to trace his hand upon and write German love poems in white paint. years later he will find that hand print and measure it to his own and laugh and say yes, I was here when I was young and a different person and you were yet foreign to my eyes. he will laugh into your skin and introduce himself again in case you forget. hello, he will say, I'm the man who finger painted my intentions on your distrust in a language you didn't understand. he will speak to you in German and you will still think it sounds angry and he will say, you thought I was yelling when I was onl

falling away.

--- i. tonight you are building a man out of blankets and pressing your face where his neck would be. you close your eyes and pretend your pulse is his and bite your lip and try so hard not to cry. ii. tonight you are looking for a man who sees the shadows in the way you hold your wrists. he could. he could, so you know it's possible. iii. tonight you are not beautiful but you are so broken. iv. tonight you slam your fists against the wall and wonder what it is about you that is so easy to walk away from. what it is about you that is so easy to leave behind. v. tonight the man with a pillow face is softer than the bod

the things we'll never say.

1. snakes crawl out of my mouth, hands like sleep waiting silently for me to give into them. i toss words like rocks across my tongue, skipping across the lake, and we reach, hands outstretched, for the sun but it's a shame it's all empty. 2. listen, if you loved me, you wouldn't try to fix me. if you loved me, you'd paint butterflies across the wall to make me smile. listen, if you loved me, you'd give me handrails to hold onto on the way down. you'd tell me that right now, i'm a caterpillar (but that caterpillars become butterflies.) listen, if you loved me, you'd love me broken, too. 3. don't speak. sure, you cou

midnight.

it is midnight and the clocks are chiming in the almost-silence. the sky feels like rain and somewhere, some girl is dancing and laughing and smiling, but she's certainly not me. our hearts are cold. they've been sleeping, curled into themselves for too long without a blanket or a pillow or a smile to fall back on. it's midnight and the sky feels like rain and there's going to be a storm later, but it won't match the storms inside, that's for sure. we are biting our nails, smiling and pretending nothing is wrong and saying, yes, darling, i'll get rid of this horrible habit in the morning. it'll all be better tomorrow, except it's midnight

Literature

the ways we destroy ourselves.

one. we were silences stretched out, lingering in the pitter-patter of muffled heartbeats. we were broken glass digging into too-fragile lungs, we were the shaking of the nervous earth beneath our feet. we were bitter unforgiveness and the screams of the world around us, we were empty spaces, we were everything but beautiful. two. happiness is on vacation. three. life is a sidewalk, he told me. life is a sidewalk, and regret and pain and tears are the cracks, and sometimes, he tells me, sometimes, you can't fill them. four. there's a shatter in the next room, a broken breath, a shaking in the bones. we're all broken, darl

you.

I'd say you remind me of a flower but to do so would be an injustice when I pick flowers, they die- you've only shown me how to live.

Literature

Je t'aime

There is firewood where my bones should be, and wires in my veins pumping electricity and everytime we talk my heart heats up and I've never felt a flame this warm.

first kiss

I will be the rolling waves, and you can be the sandy shore I'll kiss with salty lips, and then keep coming back for more
