    Put your face to mine and you may feel yourself somewhere along the contours that shape who you once fell in love with, the lips that part as if by instinct to entwine with such a fateful symmetry. Autumn will soon fold into winter, so remember me when the chills graze your skin, when the grass and fallen leaves are covered with frost. The ache in my bones will pull me out of sleep, making me remember how much I long for you breathing next to me at night. Close your hand around mine and I may feel you somewhere in the note from which a chord is broken, somewhere along the contours of your lips, we can fall in love again, symmetry entwining as if by instinct. One season will fold into another, so remember me during the fragile spaces in between, when the grass dries and fallen leaves begin to crack. The ache in your tender muscles will pull you out of your dreams, making you remember the trust I handed over. Tie your heart to mine and we may see one another somewhere near the places inside where we start learning how to mend, where our every instinct is to know the symmetry made when we entwine.
