we are forever in your debt

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
- Washington Irving (via larmoyante)
Because I have no right to read her love poems.
Because I’ve forgotten the geography of a woman’s shoulder, how hard
and brittle in places, how supple and stemlike in others.
Because my desire alone isn’t enough for both of us.
Because if I showed her the stars at night, she might see them as
nothing but light cracking through a frail wall, and I’d have no words to
comfort her.
- Excerpt from “The Constant of the Universe” by Andy Weaver (via lostinthesounds)

merelyamadness:

The day I decided to get rid of you
I peeled back my skin
prepared to pluck you
out like a splinter

but you had long since
entered my bloodstream
and with every heartbeat
you were just out of reach.

I fear the day
you reach my brain.
One more thought of you
might do me in.
