+The Seduction of Ava Noire: Sun & Moon
It’s all about sex,
we both know that.
But what I wonder is
why
after every molecule of desire
in my body has been satisfied
after
the sudden moistening, the deep
fierce aching and rising heat,
after
the throbbing glory of release and the cries
of need and pleasure have dissolved
into the air,Something like my soul slips from me
and goes to you,
without choice or question,
and wraps itself around you
all night, like the breath
of the moon
And why
I carry the thought of you
as constant as any sun
in my heart

"It’s hard for a soul to pull itself
away from flesh."
Dean Young, from “Zero Hour” (via proustitute)
away from flesh."
"Your love should never be offered to the mouth of a stranger,
Only to someone
Who has the valor and daring
To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife
Then weave them into a blanket
To protect you."

"To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves. What good was pride to me—and not seeing you and letting you lie awake night after night? No good! It only served to bring the fire down on me! You think that time heals and walls hide things, but it isn’t true, it isn’t true! When things get that deep inside you there isn’t anybody can change them."
Federico García Lorca, Blood Wedding, II:1. (via farmolio)(via bidzovka)
I’ll tell you something you may not know
the best lovers know when to let go
although I want you (here) by my side
a caged bird will never fly
and in this tangled web you weaved
i did not know what to believe.
but I know (now) what should be done
something I never should have begun…
