1. Lonely people like to pour their full hearts into q & a sessions. 2. You are my favourite season. 3.

I loved it when you said It’s not that I care about averages. It’s just that everyone is much taller than I am these days. Kids in middle schools. Kids in spelling bees. Horses.

4. Your laugh like a grain of wheat. 5. The beautiful Ethiopian coffee lady wears backless shirts. 6. A bank of melting snow, a lone crocus, etc. Your wounded pawprints in the thaw. 7. Your mouth, the mouths of other attractive people. 8. Pablo Picasso. 9. (Your smile when I said I don’t care if he was an asshole made me want to live inside your mouth.) 10. Everything else was perfect without me, and so are you.
