Like waking a sleeping giant
Or breaking a months-long silence
Or kissing your best friend in the world.
This is resistance.
This is resilience.
This is-
"-love," she finished for me.
And I couldn't think of a bigger word,
So I just nodded.
This morning,
I said love in every language I knew,
(and some I didn't)
But none of them sounded big enough.
So I suppose this is just me
Announcing that I'm joining the ranks
Of those frustrated with words.

I am in like with this.
word frustration is a complicated thing.
beautiful, weird, sometimes scary, mostly crazy.
but worth it, one way or the other.
