“You and I are so special; the miracles we know, no one knows, and no one loves the way we love.”
— Vladimir Nabokov, in a letter to his wife Véra (1924), Letters to Véra
autumn is really like. i brought you some sunlight from when you were 10. didn't the world feel so bright to you then? i'll drench your hands in syrupy nostalgia, so everything you make is stained bittersweet. i'll ruffle your hair with an ice-kissed breeze--it'll be the kindest touch you've had in years. you finally feel like a part of something grander. i'm the last warm hand you hold before winter surrender.
“It was a fine night early in April. A myriad stars mingling with the light of a sickle moon,”
— Virginia Woolf, from The Complete Works; “Orlando: A Biography,”
