I wonder if my seeds will find purchase in your soil

[foxtongue]

About a mile past the bridge, my throat creaked, and something broke, and tears fled down my face.

Every highway exit closer to the border was like a stich sewn into my chest, black thread spun by the rolling tyres of the bus, that closed my heart back up, and kept anything else from spilling out.

I can't remember the last time I cried. Maybe when someone died. I don't actually know.

Good to hear you made it back without any extra physical injury, at least. I'm also glad I got the chance to actually hug you, rather than just wanting to.

Crying can be remarkably hard, sometimes. One time it took me a year.
