sunlight
egg yolk
daffodils
a rare diamond
amber
anything not alive
our house
a sickly skin tone
bruises
the car you owned when we met
butter
lemons
fallen leaves
pineapples
the tie you tried to strangle me with
the straw in the ice water they gave me to drink at the police station
your madness
my fear in staying so long
