Here

I do not know how to be romantic,

but you should know that I am here—

on days when you yearn to dismantle

into voices of ocean waves

when it feels like molten magma dripping

from the crust of your heart

I want you to know that I am here

I want you to know that I am home

and it is okay to fall apart in my bosom.
