"you're the most beautiful oxymoron i've ever discovered. you're simultaneously life and death, the sword and sheath, a drowning breath of fresh air. i never knew i could get so damn lost in whispered sounds and woven skin and lovely, singing devils. yet here i am, irrevocably tangled in your paradox and it stings and i love it."

"I devoured so much of your phrases and  lyrical laughter. I absorbed the flakes in your eyes that frolicked like snippets of falling string, locking them deep into unknown cracks of my veneer just so I could refer to them when I missed your heat. I let your touch ravage me. The opaque billow between then and now became hushed fog when I kissed the sparks of the flame and savored it, when you held my name with love so tenderly rampant; I forgot where I lost myself in you."
