My names turtle and I’m a hopeless romantic who wants to laugh at stupid inside jokes while I’m cooking dinner for you and stopping at moments to sing loudly in the kitchen to folk punk songs that make us cry. Please lay me down and hold my tired body and make the world outside your arms disappear and my mind feel safe. I want to wrap my legs with yours and breathe the smell of your hair. I want to feel safe. I want to feel loved.
