&ldquo;Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> ― Mary Oliver


For Will

we’re lying by the river
where my heart lives,
and here is where you take my
weeping arms and wrap them up

kiss these scarlet tears away,
and tell me that I cannot drown in this
water next to me, or the water
that leaves my green eyes

you are this ineffable amount
of everything, to me
you have kept me alive

and that line,
deserves simplicity,
it deserves to be said
in the most real way

you don’t ever lose
sight of me,
please don’t
lose sight in
yourself.
