Favorite Quote:
“The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected.” ― Nicholas Sparks


Remember that you shall die so,

hold me through the night

spend your hours laughing with me

go lay in the fields with me and teach me the constellations

fight for me with your every breath

ease my every fear with your gentle words

hold me as I take my last breath in your arms

and let the vines consume our bones so one day they will find us and know our great love

Memento Mori.


The author's comments:

Momento Mori translates to "remember that you shall die." This piece is about an undeniable love for a person that you want to give with all you have but the short time you are gifted still not dying with you.
