sisterhood
how terrifying it must be to be without a sister.
how do you get through life without someone linked to you in such a sacred sense?
how else can you be reminded of what you looked like only a few years ago?
how can you exist not being able to look into different eyes, made from the same womb, a perfect reflection but your complete opposite?
your other half, twin flame, someone you're linked to with love and laughter always.
how scary it must be to live without her.

Love never dies of a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source, it dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illnesses and wounds, it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings, but never of natural death. Every lover could be brought to trial as the murderer of his own love. When something hurts you, saddens you, I rush to avoid it, to alter it, to feel as you do, but you turn away with a gesture of impatience and say: "I don’t understand."
Anaïs Nin, from The Four Chambered Heart
“The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
When The Goo Goo Dolls said “I’d give up forever to touch you,” “you’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be” and when Hozier said “the only heaven I’ll be sent to is when I’m alone with you” and when Taylor Swift said “I would fall from grace just to touch your face” and when Hozier said “if I could hold you for a minute, I’d go through it again,” “I would not change it each time, heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I” and when Hozier said “I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door” and when George Ezra said “is the grass of Eden overrated? No one else is such a beautiful dream to me” and when Big Thief said “no love is like this, no sacrifices” and when Jeff Buckley said “my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder,” “all my riches for her smile,” “all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter” and when Johnny Cash said “you can have it all, my empire of dirt”

“Querida. Veio-me hoje uma vontade enorme de te amar. E então pensei: vou-te escrever. Mas não te quero amar no tempo em que te lembro. Quero-te amar antes, muito antes. É quando o que é grande acontece. E não me digas diz lá porquê. Não sei. O que é grande acontece no eterno e o amor é assim, devias saber. Ama-se como se tem uma iluminação, deves ter ouvido. Ou se bate forte com a cabeça. Pelo menos comigo foi assim. Ou como quando se dá uma conjugação de astros no infinito, deve vir nos livros.“
- Vergílio Ferreira, Em Nome da Terra
eu poderia mergulhar nos seus olhos castanhos da mesma forma que se mergulha em um oceano, eu sinto como se meu corpo realmente estivesse nadando, afinal, o seu amor me deixa ofegante. Eu tenho uma queda pela sua alma, pelas frenéticas batidas da pureza que há em seu coração, pelo caos que se instala em sua cabeça. Estamos em um mundo caótico, querido. E felizmente teu caos combinou com o meu. Então naufrague nesse oceano comigo, sinta sua pele se arrepiar pelo gélido das ondas e procure se esquentar nos meus braços, me abrace, me beije, me ame e me torne seu aconchego preferido, da mesma forma que você se tornou para mim.

“I hated the lot of them: my parents with their pure-blood mania, convinced that to be a Black made you practically royal… my idiot brother, soft enough to believe them… that’s him. He was younger than me, and a much better son, as I was constantly reminded.”
