I am so afraid of letting myself love because I know I will love as deep as the ocean and as loud as the thunder rolls. My body aches, I love so much. My teeth grind and my hands are rough. Without my love, the earth quakes and boulders fall. Without it my eyelashes wither from all the tears. My hips are breaking without the touch of another. My lungs suffocate because I cannot get the breath through my dry lips.
