Caitlyn Siehl, from What We Buried; “Kindling”
[Text ID: “I am all mouth, with teeth like kindling. / Do not kiss me before you know this. / I am all hunger, all restraint and poised bones, coiled spine, patient spring.”]

Pablo Neruda, from “Almost Out of Sky”, Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair
“You know, love doesn’t mean "l never want you to change.” But I don’t think it means “I don’t care if you change” either. So I suppose it might mean, “I believe that you’ll always be the person I adore.” A declaration of faith, perhaps.“

“And if you call me at 4 am, too sad to even say hello, I will listen to your silence until you fall asleep.”— Unknown
