Was looking through some childhood books, and I think I might've found my introduction to Paris...

...despite the authors calling him Sikandar for Reasons™, and little me having no idea who he was meant to be xD

In all honesty, I am getting some slight homoerotic undertones looking back

Slight 🤭

à Corydon

Ton regard est non solell, Et ton sourire ma lumière: Chaque natin, à non réveil, Pour toi je fais une prière.

Ton amour est une cage Toute pleine de volupté, Et mon coeur en esclavage v a laissé sa liberté.

André Gide (I937)

to Corydon

Your gaze is unsolute, And your smile is my light: Each night, upon waking, For you I say a prayer.

Your love is a cage Full of voluptuousness, And my enslaved heart has given you its freedom.

André Gide (1937)
