LINK TO MY CLASS PORTFOLIO:

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU WHEN DAZZLING BLUE EYES TURN GREY AND DULL AS THE ASHES OF A LONG AWAITED ERUPTION, NO MATTER HOW ICY YOUR TOUCH HOW SHARP YOUR CLAWS OR HOW SADDENING YOUR GAZE, I WILL PULL YOU CLOSE TO IMBRACE THE STORM THAT RACKS YOUR SHOULDERS, AND SOAKS MINE, BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. WHEN PALE, FRAGILE HANDS CLENCH AS A SNOW LEOPARD PREPARING TO POUNCE, I WILL LOOK DEEP INTO YOUR EYES, INTO YOUR SOUL. I WILL FEEL YOUR PAIN LET IT FLOOD ME   LIKE THE FREEZING WAVES OF AN ARCTIC RIVER IN THE NIGHT. I WILL TAKE YOUR PAIN, SO THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO, BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. WHEN THAT SMALL, GENTLE FRAME RESTS, HUNCHED OVER, AND UNDONE, AS A SPARROW WHO HAS LOST THE GIFT OF FLIGHT, I WILL GIVE YOU THE WORLD IN WHAT WORDS I CAN. I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT YOU MEAN, NOT JUST TO ME, BUT TO THE UNIVERSE, UNTIL THOSE GORGEOUSCURLS CAN FALL BACK INTO PLACE ON YOUR FRAGILE SHOULDERS ONCE MORE, BECAUSE I LOVE YOU.
