“friends to lovers is the superior trope, actually”
for what is romantic love
if not friendship on fire,
passion in places
you did not know could burn
and ache with such want?
i want to love, to be in love,
to dance around in it.
i want love surrounding
everything i’ve ever known,
whether near or far from me.
i want your love in my hand,
to feel you near me once more;
the rise and fall of your breath,
the quickening of your heartbeat,
the warmth of your body.
i want your love on my mind,
transcending physical space
and the trappings of time;
a presence that does not run out,
never too far or too short.
anyway, what are hands
but extensions of our hearts—
this sinew of muscle
stretching out to reach, to hold,
to touch, to keep close?
love is an inversion of what we once knew.
i don’t know any other way to love without
reaching the point of ruin and being forever
changed. love must be transformative—
or it might as well be nothing.
— j.a.

This love
Made of fire and gold
Born of ecstasy and sacred madness
Burning too brightly, consuming me whole
Fully aware I can’t withstand the heat
I gladly dance into the flames
To die and be reborn
