“It had lasted no more than four days—four days which were perhaps the happiest days of his life. But now he had exhausted his memories, was sated by them, and the image of Mary, together with that of the old dying poet, now remained in the house of ghosts, which itself was already a memory.
Other than that image no Mary existed, nor could exist.”
― Vladimir Nabokov, Mary

“writers have a bad habit
of keeping stories alive
that have long ended.”

“Love was her nature 

and that’s why the sun 

sets behind her smile,
t
hat’s why her eyes
drown entire oceans,

that’s why her laughter

calms the rain,

when her love pours

and heals all the pain,

when storms, winds

whisper her name,

when touching her lips

feels like a hurricane.

she makes broken

bloom in her light,

she’s the sun to

my dark nights,

she’s nature, wild and free,

loving her, is healing me.”
― Ventum

“Remember why all of that happened. Don’t push things away just because they didn’t end up how you wanted them to. Accept that someone has left, accept that you have to let go of the ones that don’t want to be with you. Growth starts not with forgetting but accepting.”
― Ventum
