    Charles Baudelaire
    “Do you remember the sight we saw, my soul,
    that soft summer morning
    round a turning in the path,
    the disgusting carcass on a bed scattered with stones,
    its legs in the air like a woman in need
    burning its wedding poisons
    like a fountain with its rhythmic sobs,
    I could hear it clearly flowing with a long murmuring sound,
    but I touch my body in vain to find the wound.
    I am the vampire of my own heart,
    one of the great outcasts condemned to eternal laughter
    who can no longer smile.
    Am I dead?
    I must be dead.”
    Charles Baudelaire

    It was like hearing every goodbye ever said to me—said all at once.”
