“When I loved someone I finally understood that I was worthy of love. It seems a contradiction. What I learned was this capacity for giving required me to give to myself, that it was possible to do so. Someone wants you alive. They are not the only one who insists this. Love exists in me like a counterbalance.”

— Yanyi, from The Year of Blue Water
(via lifeinpoetry)

figlip:

“But love is impossible and it goes on
despite the impossible. You’re the muscle
I cut from the bone and still the bone
remembers, still it wants (so much, it wants)
the flesh back, the real thing,
if only to rail against it, if only
to argue and fight, if only to miss
a solve-able absence.”

— Ada Limón, Bright Dead Things; “In A Mexican Restaurant I Recall How Much You Upset Me”
