i came apart.
unraveled as he touched me.
that moment.
that simultaneous moment when his fingertips grazed my skin i felt my world lift
and separate.
my antiquated breath lost, seizing itself from my lungs.
the chill that shattered its way up my spine and back into my heart gripping the tears from behind my eyes.
and as they danced their way to my lips, numbing my skin as they went, i realized i'd been broken.
by the heat of his breath on my skin, i'd fallen victim to a death far sweeter than my life.
and i embraced it.
held it in his heartbeat
wrote it on his skin
and gave in to the expiration.
and the revolution that raptured my entirety.

What I find so wild and wonderful about this is that it leaves a question of morality, for example: is being so "unraveled" good or bad, right or wrong? Maybe to judge that is simply not the point. Anyway, I love the ways in which such beautiful language is strung together to so poetically describe such a poignant moment. I have never experienced something quite like this, yet you bring me a vivid glimpse of this world. Thank you.
