find it very heart shattering that the spot on humans foreheads that we kiss when bidding goodbye or expressing love to a loved one is called a temple. i am kissing your temple; you are mine to worship and mine to love. (love is like a religion u discover on ur own)

“This reminded me of you” is such a tender sentence. Oh to have impacted someone so much that they find bits of your soul and hold the memory of you in things and places when you’re not around.

What is love in your opinion?

“i love you. i want us both to eat well” and also, “let me love what i cannot see” and also “you can fuck anyone but with whom can you sit in water?” and also “losing through you what seemed myself, i find selves unimaginably mine” and also “love is this: two solitudes that protect and touch and greet each other” and also “I wanted us to be entirely alone on this earth, entirely alone under the sky” and also “blow all my friendships just to sit in hell with you” and also “when i love i become liquid light” and also “won’t you come into the garden? i would like my roses to see you” andalso “i deliver myself over to the unknown, in coming to you, i am without reserves or defences, stripped entirely, into the unknown” andalso “i slithered here from eden just to be outside your door” and also “i loved her to the point of invention” and also “you rain on me and i like the earth receive you” and also “let’s plunge into the deep again my love” and also, always–“everyone can forget us–as long as you remember”

things are endurable when you love and let yourself be loved

for the book thing: i found a tolkien book that had a message in the inside cover from 1979, and it said

““With Love”

isn’t quite

right

“With All My

Love”

is more to

the point but

“With Too Much

Love”

says it better”

in that format. and i had a little more hope that day

oh...............oh i need to lie down for a million years.

What do you think about platonic love .

the air i breathe the water i drink the earth that holds me upright

[echoesofstardust]

i live for the gentleness of morning light

i love you birdsong at 1am i love you cherry blossom petals on the street i love you golden light lengthening and lengthening i love you coatless evenings i love you wood pigeons crooning spectacularly outside my window i love you new leaves and new leaves and new leaves i love you magpies gathering nest materials i love you rosebuds finally arriving i love you first bees of the season going absolutely wild in the dandelions
