In every lifetime, every universe, my soul will be drawn to yours.
I will choose you in every life.
Oh, Hello May! l Rami Ammoun
If I cannot love you openly like I wish, if I cannot hold your hand when walking Or wrap you in my arms late at night. Then I will love you silently, in my mind and behind closed eyes For there, there is no rejection or heartbreak. And surely it is better to love silently than to not love at all?

I have truly loved twice
I don’t believe in third time is the charm
Because each time it nearly broke me
As if it was the first and the last
A decade between the two
There is no room for another
I feel that the third will do what it’s meant to
Break me down until there’s nothing left
Separation, W. S. Merwin
Martha Gellhorn, from a letter to David Gurewitsch featured in The Selected Letters of Martha Gellhorn
In my daydreams, in my wishes, in my ifs, coulds, and woulds, I thought, if hands could write realities, I would write your name next to mine.
