if something was truly good there would be no need to call it good,
and it wouldn’t pressure her to think so. it would help or hurt her,

and could be accounted for on your final resting day.
love is a language, she thinks, and when one of us dies,

for one other person to understand you in this world. to be known.

of unstable shadow perspectives, you focus on one person looking
at you with love, all the way there and all the way back.

i haven’t spent my life inside my own body.
always peering from t like a rat in a ruined building,
at the bright lights invading.
i wish seven angels were kneeling
around my prone body saying we will
take care of you forever.
