Missed Connections

We met at your local. We talked about our grandmothers and listened to The Orielles. You smoked barefoot on the balcony in the most brilliant blue jumper. You had books everywhere, every corner, even on the arms of your sofa. Bodies, text, feelings in your gut. I walked home with a pain in my ankle. I have been reading 'By Grand Central Station'. I can't stop thinking of you.
sicamgabrielle@gmail.com

the night we met we ran across campus together with a boy who would become my ex boyfriend, looking for adventure. i don't talk to him much anymore but we haven't stopped searching since. you're not mine, but when we hold hands on the train or you tuck your body close into mine, i wish you were. 

we shared a toyota minvan from bushick to bedstuy; i sat behind you. we talked about gaspar noé - you said irreversible was your favorite, and i said mine was love. then we were at my house. i never got your number. i think we should see a movie sometime.

<3 notes

i'm so grateful that we were set up with one another. how could i have known how sweet and tender a single weekend could be? i'm thinking of you from the coast, with the brine of the atlantic washing over me while i imagine how the verdancy of a portland riverbank might mix with the cedar of that perfume you like and how it might feel to kiss your very soft mouth again...

I put on coconut oil and think of you instantly. i’ve been oil pulling, pulling from my heart. practicing the self-care you’ve showed me. maybe it will summon you, wishful thinking. if not i will still have the benefits. i’ve thought about you in every corner of my house, on every step there’s a thought of you carved into the wood. my room is filled with our moments and all of the times I’ve carried you to your bed. you’re so deep inside my heart there’s no pulling you out, I’d never want to. I’m so glad there’s more good in there, I’ve been pouring more love into myself. i took some fish oil today, you’d be proud. I’ve always wanted to make u proud. i will always believe in you my talented beautiful bby. I really hope to see you soon, all of me misses all of you. I wish I could call you and hear your voice. I still look for you in whole foods, i see the same model of your car in the parking lot and wonder if it’s you. I’m actually looking out for you most of the day. it’s always a thought. I miss you kyla. xoxo love, your bby boi <3

like me, you like pretty girls. unlike me, you are one. you are a friend and the only person i’ve ever trusted and probably the only person i’ve ever loved. it’s nice that i don’t need to say so. (our minds are too similar for yours not to know.) sometimes i get sad that friendship is our limit. but then i remember that moons in the same orbit have to keep some distance to survive. 

when i catch a glimpse of you across a darkened room, your head bowed as you listen to an eager new person taken in by your beauty, a wry smile on your face, i think, on a loop, 'i can't believe you're mine.' it's my favorite chyron. what i'm really trying to say is - i love you more than those bitches before. xoxo forever

29m, back and forth btw NYC and Chicago - Walker looking for a municipal bureaucrat with a heart of gold. Love oral history, movies, poetry, and fiction that reads like poetry. I used to work as a journalist, now do political comms. I run a literary magazine and write a city life column called “City Mouse”. I also convene friendly gatherings of translators. Not into scenes and parties but do love people. "Those who love everything are despised by everything, as those who love a city, in its profoundest sense, become the shame of that city." (Don’t actually care what your job is.)

Cooking for two people is easier too.
