…but with you forever I'll stay

We're goin' out where the sands turnin' to gold

so put your stockings on, cause it might get cold

Everything dies, baby that's a fact

but maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty

and meet me tonight in Atlantic City

Twin Peaks changed my life. I discovered it on Tumblr. David Lynch, legend.

WHY AM I LATE TO THE KAYCE DUTTON TRAIN

[ourbittersweetsymphonies]

Let it burn

Till I'm a pile of ashes

Smokin' on your goodbye dirt ❤️‍🔥

[ourbittersweetsymphonies]

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,

or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,

in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms

but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;

thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,

risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

XVII, Pablo Neruda
