"I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it's these things I believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn't all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything"

you have invaded
my life. your photographs, your
smell, your gifts your clothes.
the space between is nonexistent; i belong
to a world of ‘ours.’
someday when we end,
finitudes of space and time
will helplessly collapse
because i’ll still have
your sweater, records, and your smile,
stuck with me for good.
