Compressed air for dying souls. Lovers falling through the cracks in a winding pavement going nowhere. My sweetheart, say you love me as the insects dance without minds. Just bodies in flux.

Images sometimes images + lovers not writers just dreamers + only the sense of self and nothing else to carry us through the night + only when I see your face there’s only you and you alone that I want beside me + it’s not madness and it’s not the booze talking either it’s just… Read more
