“What does it feel like? To be
you?”

“It feels like I’ve stolen,” I say. “Like this body isn’t really mine.”
― Lancali., I Fell in Love With Hope

“before the love of my life decided he didn’t want to live anymore,
he told me the stars belonged to us.
We spent every night together, our
bodies softly intertwined on harsh roof tiles, memorizing the patterns in the sky. So even as he withered, as his body became less body and more corpse,
I believed our stars would give him faith. I believed they would keep him
alive so long as he could look up and see they hadn’t fallen.”

“What's the German word for preemptively missing somethhing so much you can't look at it. Literal translation: green green green and I hide my face.”
― Franny Choi, The World Keeps Ending, and the World Goes On

“My stars are falling.

And I can’t save them.”
