“Our love was born of breath and bone,” she says longingly of Leo. “That’s what he told me once: ‘God breathed life back into my bones when I met you’, he’d said.”

“Sometimes it feels like even if
Every inch of my skin was touching yours
I still wouldn’t be close enough to you.”

But to continue is a choice;
And I find myself choosing you
More and more every day.”

“I do not write about love
as if I have invented it.

where there was once
darkness.”
