“Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.”
- Rainer Maria Rilke
“I am grateful to have been loved and to be loved now and to be able to love, because that liberates. Love liberates. It doesn’t just hold—that’s ego. Love liberates. It doesn’t bind. Love says, ‘I love you. I love you if you’re in China. I love you if you’re across town. I love you if you’re in Harlem. I love you. I would like to be near you. I’d like to have your arms around me. I’d like to hear your voice in my ear. But that’s not possible now, so I love you. Go.”
- Maya Angelou
“Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Reason says, Nonsense. I have walked and measured the walls here. There are no places like that.
it is not enough to love you. it is not enough to want you destroyed

[id: ten screenshots of lyrics and quotes. they read:
image 1: it’s not that i’m alone/it’s you’re not here.
image two: i am sorry. i am grateful./i just want us to be friend now, forever./take this bowl of blackberries from the garden./the sun has made them warm./i picked them just for you. i promise/i will try to stay on my side of the couch.
image three: (12 minutes ago) she said: you’re my favorite friend/i’m sorry that i want you like a lover.
image 4: it ends or it doesn’t./that’s what you say. that’s/how you get through it./the tunnel, the night,/the pain, the love./if the sun never comes up,/you find a way to live without it./if they don’t come back,/you sleep in the middle of the bed,/learn how to make enough coffee/for yourself alone./adapt. adjust./it ends or it doesn’t./it ends or it doesn’t./we do not perish.
image 5: i care for you still and i will forever/that was my part of the deal, honest/we got so familiar.
image 6: january 8th, i put on the dress you hate/laugh at my own jokes/fake a smile for my date/how do i love myself and not love you?/you made me too specific to be known by someone new.
image 7: i don’t miss you. i don’t. but it’s hard to listen to songs from that time, the seven years of it, and not see the sunlight fade on that highway leaving vegas from your passenger seat. feel the hours we still have left to go – the road ahead of us, the hum of a conversation too far now to hear. your shape and mine and how we existed in that moment, in love. when there was nothing other than the steadying idea that yes, of course i’m here, so yes, you are too. the anticipating rise of summer or a reunion of your family that felt like mine, or the two weeks of breath before school starts again. how to watch it all and not feel a twinge, never longing for it back. i can remember you, feel our ghosts in a room above my eyes and recognize we will never know each other like that again. allowing myself to exist in the memories i don’t love anymore. it’s okay. it feels as real to me as it did then, and i’m glad it was beautiful when it was. but there’s nothing here i’d return to. dec. 14, 2020 [schuyler peck]
image 8: i promised no more poetry/i’d rather think of this/as a confession:/you are still the first person/i want to share new things with.
image 9: the centre of every poem is this:/i have loved you. i have had to deal with that.
image 10: you hating me always meant more than anyone else in this hot and stupid universe loving me. at least i’d had your full attention. /end id]
