i want to know how many scars you have
and memorize the shape of your tongue.
i want to climb the curve of your lower back
and count your vertebrae
your ribs
your fingers
your goose bumps.
i want to chart the topography of your anatomy
and be fluent in your body language
i want you, entire.

Hello, I am wondering if this is your own? I've been seeing this all over the internet, it's become a smash hit, but some have attributed "Anonymous" to it, and at least one person I have seen has tried to claim it as his own...
I searched long and hard and yours is the earlier dated entry I've found... so, ?
you should take credit for your work or others will do it for you.
