“in the absence of speech

we bake bread.

with nothing left

to say.”

- “The Softly” after Jeffrey McDaniel, Natalie Wee (via chainedtocomets)

“She wasn’t my first kiss but she’s the kiss that mattered, the kiss that made me realize I didn’t want to kiss anyone else. So now my lips belong to her. Just look at them… Her name’s written all over them.”
