with me.
today, for the first time, i took in the sun.
i did not shield my eyes from its harshness, i did not succumb to the everlasting need to run and hide.
sunk into my flesh like a worm in the mud, i collected all its rays in the palm of my hand.
the shirt on my back, the strands of my hair.
the silk of her skin.
she is the everlasting.
and i, the need to run and not hide.
run, running, shes going away tomorrow.
and ill be running till she comes home.
