Detail of "Die Suche" ("The search")
Hanno Karlhuber, 1996

There's a dream in which we meet at the edge of a cliff
right before you and I could take the leap

-L. V.

so we made a pact to see the world together
until the money runs out and we'll come back here,

-L. V.

rewrite our suicide notes and tear them up, feed them to the wind.
But somewhere between two mountains, I think—unfortunately,

-L. V.

we fell in love. It was a Wednesday and we reminded
each other that the world taught us

-L. V.

not to break promises
so on the drive back, we broke each other instead.

-L. V.

L. V., i found this poem as it blurred past us on a foreign road

i hope you’re happy, but i’ll look away if it’s not with me

Details of "Dans le bleu" by Amélie Beaury-Saurel (French, 1849-1924)

SELFHOOD

Perhaps I should have been born
as a much simpler creature.
I am bad at being human.
I am bad at chasing after dreams.
I am bad at staying awake.
I am bad at writing—the very thing
that I claim to bring me solace.
Perhaps I should have been
born as a firefly or a moth.

Or one of those fish with the silver
belly. Perhaps a warm, fuzzy creature
that spends its days grazing in a
meadow that one day will be visited
by a local artist and immortalized
on his canvas. Perhaps we should
have been born as much simpler
creatures. Perhaps we’d have a
better chance of happiness then.

Detail of "Jeune homme à la fenêtre" ("Man at the Window")
Gustave Caillebotte, 1875

I was watching a film the other day. The boy confessed: I can’t stand the silence—I need to speak to you.

- L. V.

And it reminded me of the first time I fell in love. It wasn’t with a boy. It was with silence.

- L. V.

In a dream, the world shut its mouth forever and the backyard flowers began to bloom in colours we have yet to name.

- L. V.

We learned to make music another way—first with hands and feet. Later, with the way we breathe.

- L. V.

Isn’t it strange how even love could backfire? Because here I am years later and I couldn’t care less for silence anymore. I can’t stand it—speak to me.

- L. V.

L. V., i found this poem rereading a book you gave me years ago

Detail of "Terrasse du café le soir" ("Café Terrace at Night")
Vincent van Gogh, 1888

I visit god in the hospital. Room 118. His cheeks have sunken, eyes less blue.

- L. V.

There were tubes going in and out of his body. The head nurse tells me

- L. V.

his wife had left. She’s cleaning the house,

- L. V.

placing all his belongings in little brown boxes. I walk closer to the bed.

- L. V.

I tell him I refuse to forgive the nightsky that apologises for shining too bright.

- L. V.

L. V., i found this poem on a beer bottle cap you tossed across the room

("Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette")

look for the people who do
