  Fallen at your feet, I move to mount you as a climber would, to climb you like a mountain. I grasp and claw, I dig in deep to flesh and bone, while offering my own for you to take — whatever it takes to keep me held safe and warm against your surface. I plan…

  Every time I close my eyes I lose you, however briefly, 'til the moment that I wake again and seek you, heart completely following the sun you radiate, growing at a pace I had never thought I'd come to know, glowing in a way that puts all other love to shame.

  Finally my heart is broken; but I do not mean to sound dramatic, for it is not smashed or heaped in pieces, incapable of completing its beating — it simply no longer works as before.

  My love towers above the earth from the ground up, solid and immovable, overlooking everyone but existing only for you. It was not formed by erosion, all else slowly worn away until only it remained, like Grand Canyon walls; nor was it built by hand, laboured over stone by stone according to deta...

  Last night I held you in my dreams, and to my surprise there was no recoil, no sign to suggest I had wronged you. Your smile widened like a line of mercury rising, indicating the degree of your happiness. I watched over it closely, nursing you into a gentle fever.

  How inexplicable the thought that someone chose you, a speck in earth’s endless throng, to be their very favourite thing, the being they would die to be with over and over every other; How curious the cravings of another for your closeness, though you possess lumps of flesh of unremarkable topogr...
