You always hand over the good things first; here is my laughter, here is my confidence, here is the part of me I think worth loving.

MUSING | If you’re lucky

You always hand over the good things first; here is my laughter, here is my confidence, here is the part of me I think worth loving. Eventually you close your eyes and hold out something heavy – here is the thing you might leave me for.

If you’re lucky, they pick up easily. If you’re lucky, they’ll let you hold theirs, too.
