“After everything is said and done, a memory remains a treacherous thing…How long does one cling on to the people they’ve lost? How long could I have remembered my grandfather? How long had it been since I forgotten him and my mind began harbouring other things?”

“One realizes the immortality of true love only after the lover dies”

“If you love me, love me whole
not by zones of light or shadow…
if you love me, love me black
and white, and gray and green and blond,
and mixed…
love me day,
love me night…
and in the morning with the open window!
If you love me, don’t break me in pieces:
love me whole… Or do not love me at all.”

“Even in your way of forgetting there is something beautiful. I thought all forgetting was darkness, but your forgetting is luminous, like a great radiance. Like the dawn wiping out the stars! — Dulce María Loynaz, from “Poem LXXII,” trans. James O’Connor, Absolute Solitude: Selected Prose Poems (First Archipelago, 2016)”
