There were all my secrets, spread out on the table. Like someone had taken my insides and scooped them out for everyone to see. Look, here are her stupid hopes! Look, here's her dumb soft heart!

I hope they tell you I looked happy.

I beg you to read this letter. When you do, visit me in my dreams and explain why it is you had to go.

I am a mosaic of everyone I've ever loved, even for a heartbeat.

the love was there. it didnt change anything. it didnt save anyone. there were just too many forces against it. but it still matters that the love was there.

I should have held you longer before you left.

If there is a next life... I hope you don't mind if I pray that we're able to meet again... That we can find each other once more...

Beatrice. It's time for you to die.

Even if you go far, far away and I can't see you... Even if we're apart... I'll wish for the starts to bring me to you again. / No need for that. I'll always come to you.

el día que me fui de casa no llovió. dentro mío corría una tormenta. solo pensaba en volver y ni siquiera era una opción. no sé de qué hablé esa semana. nadie se enteró. recuerdo hablar con vos y hablar con vos fue tan triste. es un mal recuerdo.

I'll keep the light on for when you decide to come home.

I hope you find what I found in you.

my mother calls in the winter and asks when was the last time i went dancing. when she says «are you eating?» she means i love you. i tell her - i don’t know, i’m not really hungry. i mean «i love you, but the swimming pool feels empty.»

all the songs you liked to hear, the places you hold dear / how you used to smell, the laughter in my ears / everything will disappear / everything will disappear

'I do not pray',” he said. “'But I begged for you.'

si fuese dios y tuviese el secreto, haría un ser exacto a ti; lo probaría (a la manera de los panaderos cuando prueban el pan, es decir: con la boca) y si ese sabor fuese igual al tuyo, y tu manera de besarnos (de esto sí estoy seguro, pongo atención cuando te beso) me bastaría

I love you. I hope you go to sleep knowing that.

I know you would never wish for me to say this, so I will not. But... I am glad you did not die with them.

when was the last time you were there for yourself? when was the last time you gave yourself everything you could?

Her name is the closest thing to a prayer he's ever known

This I want to believe implicitly: Man was born for love and revolution.

the smell of rotten flesh, the smell of plagued ghosts / who was I before this war?

you want to be loved if only to prove it possible: to tell the world that someone saw you as a conquest & came back alive. that above all else, you are worthy of the risk, the effort.

† @faithlessgods.bsky.social · 13h

I love you. I love you so much. I've loved you for a long time... And I'll be in love with you for a long time still. I love you more than anything.
