Most Days I Want to Live
by Gabrielle Calvocoressi
Not all days. But most days I do. Most days the garden’s almost enough: little pink flowers on the sage, even though the man said we couldn’t eat it. Not this kind. And I said, Then, gosh. What’s the point? The flowers themselves, I suppose. The rain came and then the hail came and my love brought them in. Even tipped over they look optimistic. I know it’s too late to envy the flowers. That century’s over and done. And hope? That’s a jinx. But I did set them right. I patted them a little. And prayed for myself, which is embarrassing to admit in this day and age. But I did it. Because no one was looking or listening anyway.

Another Calvocoressi post, I feel a sense of longing/yearning from each line and the nostalgia of the past is eating me alive.

i want
Tumblr media
sometimes, you just want something so hard you have to lie about it, so you can hold it in your mouth for a minute
most days i want to live
to experience
Tumblr media
how real hunger has a real taste
most days the garden‘s almost enough.
your vulnerability
Tumblr media
little pink flowers
on the sage, even though
Tumblr media
the man said we couldnt‘t eat it. not this kind.
and i said,
then, gosh, what‘s the point?
Tumblr media
not all days. but most days i do
but
Tumblr media
i don‘t want
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
to be vulnerable
in a field i am the absence of field.
Tumblr media
this is always the case.
wherever i am
Tumblr media
i am what is missing
do you love me enough that i may be
vulnerability is courage in you and inadequacy in me
Tumblr media Tumblr media
weak
with you? do you love me
i‘m drawn
Tumblr media
stripped of everything
to your vulnerability but
Tumblr media Tumblr media
that might be lost, for only
the things i will
Tumblr media
have
repelled by mine
for ever?
