I want you to return, one day,
to tell me nothing more.
With nothing in your hands,
dehydrated from the search.
I want you to become desert,
rainless, surrounded by your corpses.
Unbearably delicious, still warm, uncertain.
Uncertain and crooked.
I want you to transform yourself, for no reason,
into water that is not fit for consumption.
Love, always yours, I'm waiting.
