The first time our eyes met across a crowded room, it was not love at first sight. Love did not grab me by the throat. Instead when I looked at you, I saw the flowers in the meadow I used to play in as a child. What I mean to say is, every time I think of you, I remember the safest, most sacred place I ever knew. Every time I touch you, my whole body blossoms with wildflowers.

“E ti dico ancora: qualunque cosa avvenga di te e di me, comunque si svolga la nostra vita, non accadrà mai che, nel momento in cui tu mi chiami seriamente e senta d’aver bisogno di me, mi trovi sordo al tuo appello.”
- Hermann Hesse, “Narciso e Boccadoro”

I hurt you and I hoped you would do hurtful things to me because I was so used to love being painful. You refused to do these things to me because you cared for me too much until finally you broke. Forgive me, my love. Pain was all I knew then, all I was comfortable with. There are so many times I looked at your kindness with suspicion, confused the melodies of your gentle words for future harm. I have known predators so long that I didn’t see an honest love for what it was. That it looked like this. That it looks like you.
- Nikita Gill, A Text I Never Sent
