ms. diagnosis

i only realised i had dimples 

when i was 39

its fair to say i have a disconnected

state of mind

my health so misdiagnosed 

i associate doctors with hurting mine

so let’s let this limerent love sing fine

aside regular meltdowns, 

it’s still the honeymoon time

we bond beyond the boundaries of skin

and trust that good souls forgive everything.

when i was in my early twenties i had a girlfriend with facial dimples. how, how did it not occur to me that i also have dimples. even as i was researching the idea on google images i was doubtful. but ultimately accepting. diagnosed with dimples at thirty nine years old. with autism at 40. what next?
