Today Ramsey and I went to the zoo. After school, we only had about two and a half hours to go through it, so we didn't make it to everything. But we saw a lot. We fooled around in the Herpaquarium. I think I'll get him a membership for his birthday. That's in November. I shouldn't think of it! But somehow I have confidence (or enough blind hope) that we'll still be together then. Afterwards, we stopped at his house for a minute and came back to my apartment. We had sex and lay around in bed eating and holding each other. We spent a very long time listening to Emmylou Harris, spooning as close as could be, with his arms wrapped around me, in silence. It almost broke my heart. When he finally had to leave to do homework, he covered me with my blanket. I teared up when he left. I was also so happy that I couldn't move for a long time after he left. I couldn't bear to change a thing. I won't say I'm in love. But falling, definitely. It scares me. I'm not supposed to do that, with him.
We shall cross one another's boundries
What other places are there in the world than those discovered on a lover's body?
The world is bundled up in this room
