I will fight death for my right to live until my last breath.

Adequate photographers use their sight, good photographers use their senses, and great photographers use their souls.

Nobody sees me like you do, and without you, I’ll be invisible. I exist because you see me.

Sometimes absence doesn’t make the heart grow fonder. Sometimes it just makes the heart hurt.

Grief is always amplified in silence.

We live and learn, change and grow. Older, but not always wiser. Stronger but not necessarily smarter. Life is a dance of steps taken forward and backwards, time spent standing still, and twirling in circles as we follow our own shadows.

A memory is never as good as a moment.

I would lose him a thousand lifetimes over if it meant I got the chance to love him a thousand times. And have him love me back. If only for a little while.

We are forever changed, forever united. From almost-us to always us.We kiss with our eyes closed but our senses open, infusing the spaces between with the elements of the other.

And suddenly I realize that all those books and movies had gotten it wrong.When you find your souls reflection in another, you shouldn’t be aware of anything other than their body, yours, and the space between.You shouldn’t be looking for someone whose kiss causes you to escape reality by transporting you to another time and place. Look for the person whose kiss grounds you firmly in the moment, whose arms hold you safely in the now.
