now they’re only inches apart and yoongi is looking at him—properly. jeongguk feels something burst in his stomach, something like a whole bubble of butterflies that wants to sing out of his mouth, and he looks up only to see more leaves falling around them. after a moment, he reaches up and waits for one to fall close enough for him to grab it, bringing it down between their faces. Clementine von Radics is the author of "Mouthful of Forevers" and the founder of Where Are You Press. She lives in Portland, Oregon. he can’t be too sure, but he thinks he sees yoongi’s cheeks colour. “i wanted a change of scenery and there happened to be a place open.” jeongguk—isn’t going to read into it. isn’t going to think about the fact that all of these events seem linked somehow, that maybe he is the bride and yoongi knows it, so he left korea. it’s easier to be summoned when they’re at least in the same timezone. really, though, if she gets the part, i’m going to quit,” grumbles jimin, arm looped through jeongguk’s as they make their way toward jeongguk’s apartment. “she can’t sing for shit! plus, she’s supposed to be my love interest but i want to throw up every time i look at her? how am i supposed to pretend to be in love with her.”

I can't say enough good things about this. It's totally refreshing to read a poetry book that has me highlighting at least one line from every single poem.

We have both lived with lips more scar tissue than skin. Our love came unannounced in the middle of the night. Our love came when we’d given up on asking love to come.

Our arms will bandage and we will press promises between us like flowers in a book. I will write sonnets to the salt of sweat on your skin. I will write novels to the scar of your nose. I will write a dictionary of all the words I have used trying to describe the way it feels to have finally, finally found you. And I will not be afraid of your scars. i saw him four days ago, too,” says namjoon with a shrug. “he showed me that suit you bought him and whatever, and we talked about the sword.” I love the poem Litany by Billy Collins.

yoongi lets out a groan, dropping his head into his hands. there are probably worse people that be able to summon him—worse people that he promised to grant wishes to. but jeongguk is the brattiest one, no doubt, and for good reason; he’s stubborn, and knows what he wants. and knows how to get it, if only by being annoying. if yoongi promised him something, jeongguk is going to make sure that the man makes good on it. gift from yoongi-hyung,” says jeongguk. “he says he doesn’t like me that much, but then he gives me stuff like this, so i don’t really believe him.”
