“I've drank her wine - intoxication.
Her taste lingers on my tongue
And yours
And his
And hers.

She gifts her fruit to all.

And like the poisonous apple,
Those who indulge
Never leave.”
― Vanessa de Largie

“If you love something, then really love it. If that trip, person, or afternoon opened up new worlds and mindsets, then by all means, write or paint or play about it, or maybe even tell someone, and tell it the way it really is, exactly how it feels. It is beautiful to feel in a body built for feeling, and exist intensely on a planet exuding intensity, because life in itself is both intense and beautiful. There’s absolutely no need or reason to pretend otherwise.”
― Victoria Erickson
