Half-close
We’ve never been closer and still some part of me reaches for you like you’re just out of frame. You love me well I know that but the distance still presses in like cold air under a door. Maybe this…
Please be patient with me.
I wish I could explain what it feels like—being this happy, and this scared, all at once. It’s like I’m standing in sunlight after being in the dark for so long that my eyes don’t know how to adjust. You…
