“If you cannot hold me in your arms, then hold my memory in high regard.
And if I cannot be in your life, then at least let me live in your heart.”

“Your memory feels like home to me.
So whenever my mind wanders, it always finds it’s way back to you.”

“I think perhaps I will always hold a candle for you – even until it burns my hand.
And when the light has long since gone …. I will be there in the darkness holding what remains, quite simply because I cannot let go.”

“One inheritance of living under the male gaze for centuries is that heterosexual women often look at other women the way a man would.
Something in the force of it, in the force of all male desire, captivated me. Men did not merely want. Men needed.
Meanwhile, women wait. The more in love they are and the fewer options they have, the longer they wait.
It’s the nuances of desire that hold the truth of who we are at our rawest moments.
We don’t remember what we want to remember. We remember what we can’t forget.
There’s nothing safer than wanting nothing.”
