"I sense that I am slowly letting go. That I'm growing less in love with you every single day. I think that's the most difficult thing about losing someone you've loved, the way you feel never really dies all at once. All you can do is wait and watch it fade away one day at a time."
- Beau Taplin
“Loving someone is like moving into a house,” Sonja used to say. “At first you fall in love with all the new things, amazed every morning that all this belongs to you, as if fearing that someone would suddenly come rushing in through the door to explain that a terrible mistake had been made, you weren’t actually supposed to live in a wonderful place like this. Then over the years the walls become weathered, the wood splinters here and there, and you start to love that house not so much because of all its perfection, but rather for its imperfections. You get to know all the nooks and crannies. How to avoid getting the key caught in the lock when it’s cold outside. Which of the floorboards flex slightly when one steps on them or exactly how to open the wardrobe doors without them creaking. These are the little secrets that make it your home.”

You were holding my heart in the palms of your hand. You could have been gentle yet you decided to crush it.
He's obsessed with her body right now. She likes him like this—kissing every part of her like he's deriving life force from it.

Scam
Words are oblivious in belittling my emotions
Quarrying into these veins that pumps scarlet
Scared for life they see the prey shaking
Of anger? Of fear? Of Disgust?
Sanctuaries are vanquished in holy names of covetousness
Proclaims their admiration by using daggers
Pointed at the cause of all sin: the heart
Contrary to the vehemence that I feel
Violated and denied the prerogatives offered to me at birth
Silent are the behest of the laws of the soul

You said I make you blush with my words
You make my blush with just your existence
“You get a strange feeling when you’re about to leave a place. Like you’ll not only miss the people you love but you’ll miss the person you are now at this time and this place because you’ll never be this way ever again.”

If you ever unlove me, have the guts to tell it to my face. Otherwise you are a coward.
