The Kiss - c. essington (After Gustav Klimt)
someone spent too much time on something.
What's your favorite place in the world? Where would you most like to travel to?
I don’t think I have a particularly favorite place just yet. I’d really love to go to Ireland or Scotland. I went to London once to visit my uncle, and I have to say that was very beautiful.

kayaking in the winter means you’re confident or lonely
running uphill until everything, including your name, hurts means that there is something in your body which you’ve missed missing.
writing codes in plain english out of words that symbolize nothing but themselves means you’ve taken up poetry again and should stop or get a kayak by this time, next december.

“wait.”

in a bite of lamplight, he stands up to say I love you. he says it slow so he can feel it in his mouth, rolling like a marble with no glass to put its body in. no one is there to take it, but it is still true. It is snow falling, looking for concrete.
