Quietude

I gazed and gazed,
and everything was interesting, I was
free, not yet in love, I did not
belong to anyone, I had drunk
no milk, yet - no one had
my heart.

—“First Hour” - Sharon Olds (via inesperto)

Silly me, wheeling in the sky
Silly me willing not to lie
Singing wistfully on truth
Singed, weaken by you sir,
What if I never hold you
would you think it over?

—What If I Never - Ana Raffali
