As posted by

This month we will have various lines from poems. Hope you will like.
The prompts
1. I would like to be the air that inhabits you for a moment.
2. I weary for desires never guessed, for alien passions, strange imaginings,to be some other person for a day.
3. My strategy is that some day, I don't know how, nor with what pretext, that finally you need me.
4. These fragments I have shored against my ruins.
5. Be an outcast, be pleased to walk alone.
6. You may trod me in the very dirt, but still, like dust, I'll rise.
7. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
8. There are worse things than being alone, but it often takes decades to realize this and most often when you do it's too late.
9. I am learning to abandon the world before it can abandon me.
10. No one remembers your vision or even your real name.
11. I am tired of being brave.
12. Some days I am more wolf than woman.
13. Every time I travel I meet myself a little more.
14. I wish I could walk for a day and a night, and find me at dawn in a desolate place.
15. They have no idea what it’s like to lose home at the risk of never finding home again.
16. Darkness settles on roofs and walls.
17. Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
18. Unbeing dead isn't being alive.
19. All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.
20. I have a brief confession that I would like to make.
21. It's early in the morning, and they are doing this thing together.
22. Time was away and somewhere else.
23. Some words are messengers that come from far away.
24. Miracles we believed in made vampirism just as plausible.
25. I am disappearing so far into the dark I have vanished from sight.
26. There’s this person I know I’m not in love with.
27. I alone am responsible for the content and decorum of my person.
28. Who are you? Where are you hiding?
29. I early learned to make my heart suffice itself, and seek support and sympathy in its own depths.
