"I no longer believe in eye fish in fact, but still do in metaphor. In the passion of an embrace, when breath, the wind, is at its loudest and skin at its saltiest, I still nearly think that I could stop things and hear, feel, the rolling of the sea. I am still nearly convinced that, when my love and I kiss, we will be blessed with the sight of angelfish and sea-horses rising to the surface of our eyes, these fish being the surest proof of our love. In spite of everything, I still profoundly believe that love is something oceanic."

i read the paragraphs that related to fish eyes over, and over because i have so many fish in my eyes. love is a food on which your fish eyes feast because the more you love it seems the more fish there are in your eyes. the more you love the more fish flailing down your cheeks.
