two years?
time is rude when it suddenly presents receipts. #
Next Friday is December 5.
Two years with Yuri.
Two.
That doesn’t sound possible because parts of our relationship still feel brand new, while other parts feel so normal I can’t remember what occupied the space before them. He knows the tea/biscuit ritual. He knows which look means I hate what I’m wearing and which look means I hate my hair. He knows that `”I’m ready”` on the phone means I have begun considering readiness as a concept. He knows when I stop speaking because the music has become interesting. He knows when I’m genuinely angry about something online and when I’m only enjoying complaining.
Two years.
We went out tonight and I kept thinking about it.
Didn’t tell him.
Now he can read it here.
Ha.
Remember me, Eclipse.
Why?
Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
