i hate this picture.
(you look so young. too young.
though i have not seen you in exactly five months to the day, i know you look slightly older now.)
it was just after we'd made love. (how could i have loved such a dumb, young, ripe thing?) it was summer and things were light, then. the light in your eyes, pictured here, it burned! it burned through me this day, just as it did that one deciding night, in the shower -when you still lived in that large, dirty house - pressed against the tile, pressed into one another. oh, the things i did not know then.
you jester. you silly, smiling boy.
