Cute — a poem

Cute - A Poem

Written May 2022, Copenhagen, Denmark

There are moments when everything you feel is too much for language to hold. Every shift in the air between you, everything that isn’t said but burns in the space between. It’s the kind of connection that makes you want to disappear inside someone, just to understand what it means to be them. But all you’re left with is the fear that you’ll never be able to explain it, so you settle for something smaller: a simple word.

The original piece was written in Danish, but I’ve included an English translation.
