Fragments of a Reflection Quotes

“Your heart beats against the palm of my hand.
Its
need
to be
one with me
drips
between my fingertips
as I squeeze perfect drops of love into small
receptacles to be preserved,

for later.”
― N'Zuri Za Austin, Fragments of a Reflection: Short Stories & Poetry

“Tonight, can we just pretend you want me too?”
― N'Zuri Za Austin, Fragments of a Reflection: Short Stories & Poetry

“The caress of each word becoming
one
with the page.
Twisting
beneath the touch of the pen,
forming
a trail of permanent kisses,
until they reach
me.”
― N'Zuri Za Austin, Fragments of a Reflection: Short Stories & Poetry
