4. height praise



You know that feeling when you’re at such a high point of confidence, you feel like you’ve figured out the whole wide universe, and then she sends you something to take you out at the knees. Because that thing you felt confident about... well, it turns out you were wrong.  



?




Being with you felt like sorcery.

My legs fluttered in your air.

Like I pulled you out of a hat.

And got to call you mine.

You wiggled for me.

My funny little bunny.


Moonlit, angelic but most of all, like magic.


I knew the moment I saw you.

I had willed you into the world.

No other reason you were possible.

I knew the number of your freckles.

Before I saw the color of your eyes.

The dots only I would connect.


I made myself the way you like.

I wasn’t scared to be me.

You made me feel naked and safe.

Without asking for me to be small.


You let me soar above you.

Knowing all I do is with you.

You praised me for my height.

Then climbed on my back.

We flew to where rain meets sky.
