• I_Want_To_See_You_In_The_Summer(reread_by_ABK)

i want to see you in the summer
i want to see you sweating
on roller-skates and sand

i want to burn every sheet
of paper bearing my address
until the ash is tall enough to live in
(or at least coat myself with—
maybe then i could finally
call myself a shadow)
too callow, too bright-eyed
to know anything of
life and love
but i can certainly try

i would like not to exist in any
phonebook or on any pay slip
i do not want my name to
slow dance with anyone
except you

i want to see you in the summer
and the winter and the fall
and if they all forgot our names
if a storm cloud gulped us up
and whisked us away
i could spend another winter immersed in you
a winter, a spring, a summer or two
i could keep you warm
engulf you like a wildfire
and whisper like one, too
(my spine cares not if it spends
the rest of its life pressed against
the bed and your belly)

if you have any regrets
(or if fear starts
plucking out strands of your hair, or
dyeing your eyebrows grey)
i will tuck them in my sleeve
(though we can talk about them, first)
i will devour every time your
heart ever skipped a beat
and i will squeeze every time
your hands were shaking
into a shoe box and bury them
(i think if we leave them
underground for long enough
something wonderful starts to bloom)

i want to see you in the spring
so we can watch it sprout
through damp, springy earth
and rain coat hoods
only in primary colors
ineffable hues
painting the backdrop
with how june first felt

and in the fall, when they
come looking for me
you can tell them i’ve
gone somewhere far away
(it won’t really be a lie)

but for now,
i want to see you in the summer
the rest can wait
