dépaysement

love a sad person
with gentle smiles
warm embraces
and consistency.

(always?)
— always.
love a sad person
with tiny notes
and worn out letters
of reassurance.

(do you?)
— i do.

love a sad person
through drunken hours
and shouts of quarrel
but never angry.

(i’m sorry.)
— i’m sorry.

love a sad person
etch your name onto
their fragile bones
and make them smile,
as they always should.

(thank you.)
— thank you.

love a sad person
but don’t regret meeting them:
sad people always
go first.

(goodbye.)
— don’t go.
