God bless you, my brother.
my favorite emotion is when someone does something kinda foolish and all you can say is “i love you” in response
Woman (Reading)
And I pause where I am for a second when I hear your name
Sometimes I think I see your face in improbable places
Do those moments replay for you?
When I’m suddenly there and then won’t go away
When you’re sitting in the living room reading for the afternoon
Do you put your book down look and try to find me there?
will i spend eternity only gasping for air?
