Most Beloved

Side note: I made this artwork (the two hands) in the summer on wood. I hadn’t read TSOA yet at that time, and I feel like it was meant to be.

I finished The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue last night and it was the most beautiful book. I listened to this song a lot while reading it and it just hit different. I mean even the name kinda fits the story (French & Library) If you’ve read it please listen.

I feel all the emotions.

The End

I stagger backwards, and find the open window.

Then there’s only air. 

A sea of hopeless molecules, that will not hold me back, nor slow me down. 

It’s as if I drift through nothingness. 

So fast, yet time seems to slow down. 

If only I could turn it back. 

Once, I thought of how it would be. These final seconds of life. Realising there is nothing you can do to stop it. 

But now, when careless thoughts have become reality, I feel nothing.

I don’t even feel the brisk air on my skin. 

But, it is in that moment, that everything comes together.

You see life as it truly is. 

A gift, a journey, a chance. 

How long do I have left?

With my eyes towards the sky, I see a falling star.

And though I wish I could make that wish, there’s nothing to stop this inevitable end. 

So I close my eyes.

And ask the star, to be remembered.

Achilles & Patroclus - Patrochilles - looking, remembering their life. 

“I am made of memories”

“I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.” - Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles

“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” ― Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles
