Happy February
the month of love
“We were all in love with each other. We were in love with ourselves. We still are.”
“When she took me back in I was so happy. I was just so happy. I really felt like I’d arrived, I belonged… She’d really missed me. She didn’t realize until I’d gone. She wanted me so much. And then when I came back, she was in love with me as much as I was with her. It was a miracle. In the summer we’d sit next to one another for hours and hours, by the fire holding hands…”
“Maybe that’s the difference with me these days. I used to get this feeling that life was rushing past me and I had to grab hold of it or I’d lose everything… These days, I just let go of them. And it isn’t me who falls. It’s the rest of the world that goes away - up or down, I don’t know. Just away.”
“It must be like owning the sky.”
-Smack, Melvin Burgess

I want to be in your eyes.
You’re honest.
You’re true.
You’re you.
