“For all his wisdom, he did not know that love cannot be tested. Honesty can be tested and loyalty. But there is not test for love. Love goes on forever, once it begins, even if we come to hate the one we love. Love goes on forever because love is born in the part of us that does not die.”

“Do not fall in love with people like me
we will take you to

and kiss you in every beautiful

never go back to them
without tasting us
like blood in your mouth.”
― Caitlyn Siehl
