Literature
11:11
tell her to keep writing poetry, because she never saw the way
she dances with language, pulling the metaphors close
& whispering all the words she won't say aloud,
but i did.
remember her favourite colours:
cherry blossoms in the spring,
light, cloudy days in the winter,
& forest streams gleaming in the summer sun.
never take her blinding light for granted:
she chose you, a tail without a comet,
from a universe of stars.
don't forget her love for sunshine,
or sunglasses,
or cherries,
or you.
she is a hurricane,
& she made you the eye of it.
treat her better than i ever did.
