that your parents don't know.that your parents don't know you, the way you, in the nighttime sit on the rooftops downtown while a boy plays the guitar. the way the wind blows and you are cold and there is no one there to tell you to button up or to go inside when the rain begins, slowly, to fall. that, even if they did know, it would not matter because you, thank heavens, are not a child anymore. having children is tiresome. they'd rather not know where you are and so you don't call to tell them that tonight you hung your hungry body half over the edge and contemplated gravity. and you don't call to ask them did you ever do thathat your parents don't know.
Weeping Ghostrogue.the untamed scent of woman on my skin and the way my heart beats to the syllables of her name. the angelic (almost) way i claimed you as a child does a toy he has kept, but never played with, as soon as it falls into the hands of another.rogue.

you said 'she's nothing like you' and i laughed, said 'that's fantastic' but what i meant was she's never seen you bared, or maybe she has, but she's never seen you bared as I have and she sure as hell has never seen the war in your eyes, never scraped the sand and dust out from under your fingernails. and didn't you kiss my forehead while I took your ghosts
because.i will never love you because you don't smell anything like the Ukraine and because i love a boy who watched the sunset over Kuwait and i love a boy who held his mother's dying hands, asked me to hold them too. i love a boy and he is not you;because.
one with i-don't-know-what color hair but definitely-blue eyes, unless you count Texas, who i will always love but will never hold to my tongue or breast or spine again, and of course his eyes were darker than alone and maybe that's where i am because it's hard not to be alone when you love so many people.
and that's another thing because it's not just them.
