i don’t like the “i’ll die for you” trope because for most of us, dying isn’t the worst thing that can happen. i want the “i love you so much i’ll live for you” trope

Take responsibility for your heart .

I wanted to be loved more than I wanted to be alive. For so long

I thought not to be loved is good but to be loved is to be good.

All those years, convinced — surely I must be bad, the way you keep punishing me.

— Leila Chatti, from “Faulty,” published in Prairie Schooner

“soul contact”

[sensitivesuggestions]

I crave love in the most innocent of ways, I crave to say goodnight, and give forehead kisses and overly tight hugs. I want to lay beside you, and be wrapped around you. As nothing more and nothing less.
