I could tell you this is a book
on healing
on breakups
on make-ups
on first dates and heartaches.
I could say,

“this is every word I wish
I had said and a few I’d give anything
to take back.”
I could explain that these pages hold the
secrets only my bedroom walls knew as truths
and the warmth of the sunlight that faithfully
kissed my skin after every sleepless night.
I could go on and on.
And all of it would be true.
Yet, never quite true enough.
So I’ll just say this is the story of every time
I have gazed into the most humbling and
exposing mirror this life gives us.
Here lies every time I have ever
fallen in love...
and

 

yes, it’s about you.
