I've fallen in love with a human.
There is a steady and comforting eagerness to his hands,
youthful ease in his gaze and bearing,
youthful ease in his gaze and bearing,
and he traces each corner of me with emphatic memorization,
as if I could flee at any moment.
as if I could flee at any moment.
He is in my mind always,
blanketed in this quiet season,
covered in northern snow,
where we have sewn our heartstrings together.
