The author's comments:

I'm just a gay girl from a small town in Michigan writing about my girlfriend and the love she's shown me, my experiences, my trauma, and my passions. This is a poem I wrote in the middle of my chemistry class when I was too overwhelmed with gratitude to do anything but write.
