I want this ride to come to a conclusion before a collision.
The physics of our souls intertwining like an endless roller-coaster, our adrenaline rising and falling at rapid speeds.
Twist and turns at every angle, we're falling upside down, and even off to the side slightly, I'm left breathless, screaming hysterically and gasping for air, and you're so carefree with both hands off of the railing, feeling the wind through your fingertips. The unforgettable rising and falling sensation you bring to my lips.
My eyes begin to water, and I can feel my tears flying backwards behind me like rain, bright lights blinding and confusing me, and just when we start to slow down–
we start to go backwards.
Being with you, is like finally being tall enough to ride a roller-coaster, it's exciting, and the anticipation is burning my insides, and then unimaginable excitement, and joy rush over us; we're flying.
we're terrified, and so alive at the same time.

First Starlight of Summer
Your whole being is constituted by yearning. You miss the stars but have never seen a fully-realized night sky sparkle to life before your eyes. You write things, funny but short but profound, emulating the archaic cosmos that turns by its own unknowable calculus emulating love in all its celestial glory turning in that same cryptic way, but fully know neither and hardly know both, and it feels disingenuous, so you write about writers. It feels vaguely masturbatory, but it’s funny but short but profound and it impresses the people around you enough, so you run with it forever until you can’t anymore.
