Was that not how you loved someone? By hammering your body into whatever shape they liked best, and handing yourself to them like a hilt?

Every empty Sunday night, you come back in pieces, every detail amplified.

I may not believe in God, but I believe in you. And therefore I speak to Him through you. Through the transitive property of equality, if "A" equals "B" and "B" equals "C", therefore "A" equals "C". Reason and faith in harmony. Isn't that why we're so good together?

My darling, you are the poetry in every song that I write. You are my constant sun and my brightest moonlight. My love for you is as unquantifiable as the stars scattered across the night sky.

Yours, yours. I was painted for you.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

When is a monster not a monster? Oh, when you are the reason it has become so mangled.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

I have so little real life that I can count moments like these on the fingers of one hand; I can't help reproducing them again in my dreams. I shall dream about you all night, all week, all year.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

I dreamt of you, over and over again, until you were in front of me. But still, you weren't. You were only a nightmare.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

He wants to say: You're beautiful when you sleep. But she's not sleeping. She could be dying.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

Tragedies made her feel something, everything. She loved it too much she turned her life into one. It wasn't so tragic after all.

[lady hiraeth @excerptum]

We were too alike to like each other. Two sides of the same coin that would never see eye to eye. Oh, father. We were both doomed the second you heard my first cries in that hospital room.
