The Little Things

Don’t hold my hand.

Don’t kiss me when you walk through my door.

God why did I let you in?

Don’t text me often.

Don’t hold me too tight.

Don’t say the big L word.

Don’t give me the big L word.

Don’t whisper sweet nothings to me.

Don’t let me lay my head on your chest.

Don’t call me. Don’t think of me. Don’t hold my hand.

Cuz if you do- God if you do? I just might have to slap myself. Everything is no longer sacred. Bodies are vessels for empty souls to wrestle with. Bodies are sugar rush facilities always on the hunt driving us around for the next ultimate high. Bodies collect the love DNA we all want to overlook because a quick fuck gets us all through the night. Instead of working that extra hour on something important we schedule dick appointments on a whim. And before bodies as empty vessels rustle together like leaves in the wind, we pray that our Tinder date is far from the one. In the name of the father, we beg for our hearts not to be broken. And of the son, cuddles are the devil and we must run from pure serotonin lovescapes. And of the Holy Spirit, we ask ourselves how we could let them destroy us. In the name of lust, longing, and loneliness, we pray.

Leave me on read.

Ignore my messages.

Don’t tell me anything.

Say nothing, so you can say everything.

Don’t… Just don’t. Don’t hold me.

Because as your thumb strokes my arm and the world around us becomes a Van Gogh painting, we become infinite. Like twin flames… across divine vibrations, curving and curling and swirling and seeking, always seeking, we are linked by don’t know how to be.

You see, I don’t want you to hold me like everyone else;

Promise to adore me and then leave.

Fuckin hold me right. And I’ll never let you go.
