...spiritual or emotional pain doesn't become a memory so much as a bruise ...
...the best way to forgive someone is to enter into their sufferings ...
...I've decided ... love is an eternity of slow motion replays ...
...nobody ever takes from the desert anything but aridity and monsters...
...the answer is not in the damn blank page - it's in the days or years before and you have to dredge it up - exhume the past again ...
...the wounds of the past and the scars of the present don't disfigure me in your eyes - because you know the price I pay for loving you ...
...Myths aren’t fairy tales or legends—they’re an honest attempt to explain mysteries...
...art is weaker than life - in the end I have a bag of letters to scrabble into order - rune tiles to cast my fate...
...that's the essence of me - I don't think, I feel - at best, I think-feel...
...you were there when they trampled me - you picked me up, healed me and gave me back my feelings - is it any wonder I love you?...
...the feelings that pass between us are deeper than fleshly touches...
...it's easy to express romantic love - harder to manage daily love - to forgive failings close to feelings - to divide self from soul...
...you want things to remain the same, which they never can, and so you’re wounded by your own feelings & resentful others don’t seem to care...
... only a seer or a lover would know that I'm making a jewelry of words for you -drawn from your essence -to flash and burn with your fire -so you can bedazzle with your own light ...
... the house is on fire, but go ahead - finish painting the verandah...
...the winter is kind and leaves red berries on the boughs for hungry sparrows...
...you either forgive a lover for abandoning you or you forgive God for taking them - either way you have to forgive...
...I need you to be a listener - you need me to hang word on. We're friends because neither has discovered a limit where the other ends...
