2. in waking life you are a boy with soft shoulders and a softer heart. you've never kissed jesus, but there's a part of you that wants to someday, even with your wicked knees and red-stained mouth. you trace your fingers over the bible-words like they could paint a braille portrait of the curves of his lips. late at night, in the dark, you whisper to him, i hope you aren't ashamed to love me, and somewhere unseen he whispers back, darling, i have loved you shamelessly since before you were stardust."
