to fall in love and be disassembled.

About Me


"He cannot bear this wall in her. 'You built your walls too,' she tells him, 'so I have my wall.' She says it glittering in a beauty he cannot stand. She, with her beautiful clothes, with her pale face that laughs at everyone who smiles at her. He knows the only way he can accept losing her is if he can still hold her, be held by her. If they can somehow nurse each other out of this. Not with a wall. He feels everything is missing from his body, feels he contains smoke. All that is alive is the knowledge of future desire and want. What he would say, he cannot say to this woman whose openness is like a wound, whose youth is not yet mortal. He cannot bring himself to alter what he loves most in her, her lack of compromise, where the romance of the poems she loves still sits with ease in the real world.'From this point on in our lives,' she had whispered to him earlier, 'we will either find or lose our souls.'How does this happen?...To fall in love and be disassembled."
