“An emptiness so vast I can’t tell if I am in it or it in me.”
— Richard Jackson, from “Elegy Just in Case,” Asheville Poetry Review (2022)
Na pyaar, na paise, Oh God, aise kaise!!!
Au milieu de l'hiver, j'ai découvert en moi un invincible été.
Albert Camus
I’ll trust the universe will always bring me to you!

The smoke of despair spares no one. No matter how hard you try to avoid it, no matter how fast you try to run away from it. It seeps in through the smallest of cracks and crevices and shrouds you, blinds you. So much so that you can't see yourself. Can't feel yourself.
Sooner or later, it will dissipate.
But the remnants of the smoke which have infiltrated you will stay behind. It'll stay behind for a long time, and keep on reminding you of how debilitating it feels. But who knows? It might even stay forever.
"He's smiling, and I didn't realize how much I missed seeing that smile. He should smile all the time. Forever. At me."
- Ugly Love | Colleen Hoover
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
"Maybe we fall in love with sad eyes because we see our souls reflected in them."
Bridgett Devoue
“…there is the heat of Love, the pulsing rush of Longing, the lover’s whisper, irresistible—magic to make the sanest man go mad.” ― Homer, The Iliad
"Your absence has gone through me, like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color."
W.S. Merwin
"Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it."
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
