โ I would know his face in dark or disguise. I would know it even in madness. โ
โ I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world. โ
โ I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me. โ
โ To the ends of the earth, would you follow me? โ
โ In my dreams, itโs always you. โ
โ Your name fit into my mouth better than my own ever has, like I was born to speak it. โย
โ There is no room for anything in my body but you. โ
โ I think you know how to love better than any of us. Thatโs why you find it all so painful. โ
โ If I had words to speak such a thing, I would have. But there were none that seemed big enough for it, to hold that swelling truth. โ
โ I would give all this and heaven too, I would give it all if only for a moment. โ
โ How I ruined everything by saying it out loudโฆ โ
โ He is half my soul, as the poets say. โ
โ You can love a monster, it can even love you back, but that does not change its nature. โ
โ What a waste to say the heart could feel apart or feel complete. โ
โ Someone will remember us, even in another time. โ
โ We were like gods at the dawning of the world, and our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but each other. โ
โ I cannot love a hero. I do not want to see you being turned into a statue. โ
โ I called your name โtil my fever broke. โย
โ There is nothing in the world I wanted more than to hear what he had not said. โ
โ The heart is hard to translate, it has a language of its own. โ
โIโd choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, Iโd find you and Iโd choose you. โ
โ I made a promise when we were young. I told you I would see you again, no matter what became of us. โ
โ We are only human, and the gods fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy. โ
โ I am not beautiful, but I could be. โ
โ If you didnโt want the beautiful so badly perhaps you wouldโve found it in your spirit singing softly. But hunter, you are human. โ
โ Because you want to die for love. You always have. โ
โ Iโd give him all that I am. Iโd give him all that I was. Iโd tie our hearts together, chamber by chamber. โ
โ The blood in your mouth, I wish it was mine. โ
โ Be with me alwaysโ take any formโ drive me mad! โ
โ I love you so much Iโm going to let you kill me. โ
โ When I am dead, I charge you to mingle our ashes and bury us together. โ
โ I will love you forever; whatever happens. Till I die and after I die, and when I find my way out of the land of the dead, Iโll drift about forever, all my atoms, till I find you again. โ
โ You were my new dream. โ
โ I wish for earthquakes, eruptions, flood. Only that seems large enough to hold all of my rage and grief. โ
โ Speak of her over my grave, and watch how she brings me back to life. โ
โ Iโll live without you, though the struggle will be daily. โ
โ How dare you ask me to live with it? I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul! โ
โ No grave can hold my body down. Iโll crawl home to her. โ
โ Donโt leave me in this abyss where I cannot find you! โ
โ When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him. โ
โ I cannot conceive of a universe without you in it. โ
โ He would go, and I would follow, even into death. โ
โ If you have to go, you know I will go with you. โ
โ Perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. โ
