Every mouth you've ever kissed
was just practice
all the bodies you've ever undressed
and plowed in to
were preparing you for me.
I don't mind tasting them in the
memory of your mouth
they were a long hall way
a door half open
a single suitcase still on the conveyor belt
was it a long journey?
Did it take you long to find me?
You're here now
welcome home.
-Warsan Shire, Welcome Home
