Cold

Those moments when I am biking across campus in the dark and the cold hits my face and makes my muscles tense and my eyes water but really I think I might be crying anyway because everything is so profoundly beautiful.

Us

I knew you felt it too when you looked at me and said with urgency the word "us."
"These are people who know words. People like us."

People like us.

You are so beautiful. And in that moment of fear and confusion and dumbfounding sorrow flooding the room, I was overwhelmed with the thought that I am so blessed to be part of an us with you.
