sunshine

sunshine
i love you 

i love you more than my most melancholy song, more than the hum of my little heater, more than the crack of paper-thin ice

 i love you more than the smell of expensive paper, my babies head, and the crisp smell of hotel air conditioners 

i love you more than dr pepper after chocolate, my mother’s cherry pie, more than burnt half exploded popcorn kernels

 i love you more than the squeak of ice cold black olives on my teeth, more than the first shot of hot water on a cold day, more than blinking eyelashes on my cheek

 sunshine
i love you
