‘‘Today life opened inside me like an egg’’
Avocados are my favorite fruit. Every Sunday my grandfather used to bring me an avocado pear hidden at the bottom of his briefcase under six soiled shirts and the Sunday comics. He taught me how to eat avocados by melting grape jelly and french dressing together in a saucepan and filling the cup of the pear with the garnet sauce. I felt homesick for that sauce. The crabmeat tasted bland in comparison.
‘I’ve got to talk to you, have you got time?’
‘Yes,’ she said, ‘let’s have an orange.’

Really specific web weaving suggestion? If you can i mean<3
Loving someone and telling them and them loving you back but being too much of a coward to do something.
It's really specific i understand if you don't wanna do it

Low Tide Evening
its sea smell like the beach at low tide,
walking through the inhuman hour
when the world resolves into a single blue pane
of stained glass, the gulls & shadows
involved with one thing only: hunger.
— Katherine Larson, from “Low Tide Evening” (Poetry Foundation, March 2006) (via sea-born)

“Our hands touch, our bodies burst into fire.”
‘‘I’ve brought you
this gift: the starkness of my hands and
the crater of my mouth.”
your lover’s hand is placed like heated stones along your heaving back you don’t want to be touched & want to be touched everywhere
I like him and I want to be like him, my hands no longer an afterthought.
