“Πηγα στο δωματιό μου και με αργά βήματα, δίχως να ανάψω το φως, κατευθήνθηκα στο παράθυρο. Με είχε κυριεύσει η σιωπή. Η μοναξιά. Άνοιξα τα φύλλα του παραθύρου για να αναπνέω τον νυχτερινό αέρα και μετά ακούμπησα απαλά στο πλαινό περβάζι. Έφερα τα χέρια γύρω μου και προσπάθησα να νιώσω ζεστασιά. Ένιωθα κρύα μέσα. Παγωμένη. Έκλεισα τα μάτια και αφουγκράστηκα. Ίσως να μπορούσα να ακούσω τα βήματά του μέσα στο δάσος. Τον αέρα που εκτόπιζε το ευλίγιστο κορμί του, την ανάσα του...
Βρισκόμασταν τόσο κοντά αλλά και τόσο μακριά συνάμα. Σε λίγο, δε θα είχα ούτε καν αυτό..." Απο την Ελένη...ΘΕΟΙ ΚΑΙ ΦΥΛΑΚΕΣ”

“I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones

― Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

“I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)I am never without it (anywhere
I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling)
I fear no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet)I want no world (for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)”
― E.E. Cummings

If little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you
Little by little
If suddenly you forget me
Do not look for me
For I shall already have forgotten you

If you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes through my life
And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots
Remember
That on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms
And my roots will set off to seek another land”
― Pablo Neruda, Selected Poems
