If you ask me about love, I’ll show you late winter light on the farmland—some liminal thing…..
beautiful! @dinalrelles.bsky.social @matchbooklitmag.bsky.social

it’s been a minute since i’ve published anything, so i’m especially grateful that @matchbooklitmag.bsky.social gave this little musing on love + leavings a home.

you can read the full piece here: matchbooklitmag.com/mb/relles/departures
Departures by Dina L. Relles handed you the promised coffee with an apology: no sugar, no milk, I’m sorry. I don’t need those things, you said, and I fell in impossible love with you all over again. I’d come from my room carrying everything I wanted to happen that didn’t. Now the lobby was too bright and smelled like grapefruits and your face was weary in a way that felt intimate. You spoke quietly to me in the taxi, then held me twice at the terminal, which I took to mean you loved me too, despite.

I am desperate to know why she disappeared—if they did something wrong, if she needed my help, if there was anything I could have done…..
This kept me riveted! @anniejowrites.bsky.social at Terrazo Editions👇🏽👇🏽
