“And Where Should I Go Now That I’ve Reached The Sea?”

did the twin flame bruise paint you blue

“If you open your eyes, night opens its doors of moss, opens the secret kingdom of water that flows from the center of night. If you close them, a river, a sweet and silent current, floods over you within, moves forward, darkens you: night soaks the riverbanks in your soul.”

— Octavio Paz, from The Poems of Octavio Paz; Nocturnal Water. Trans. Eliot Weinberger.

" Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to beat peace".

- Oscar Wilde,The Canterville Ghost

looking for: somebody to go on long walks with

requirements 

willing to talk about our existential crisis

stop to pick up cool looking leaves, rocks and misc objects

will attempt to befriend any animals we might see

hold my hand so it doesn’t get cold

point out unusual cloud shapes

one of my favourite things in the entire world is when there’s a huge thunderstorm outside and it’s raining heavily and you’re in bed swathed in blankets and you have just never felt warmer and safer than you do in that moment

Safia Elhillo, from Home Is Not a Country; “Boys”

“Let us be misplaced together. Like short walks through big cities. Like hard work on Sunday mornings.”

‘Try’ is all we have.

“I love that word. Forever. I love that forever doesn’t exist, but we have a word for it anyway, and use it all the time. It’s beautiful and doomed.”
