Maybe one night Iโll be asleep and Iโll feel a hand like a dove on my cheekbone and feel her breath cool like peppermints and when I open my eyes my mom will be there like an angle, saying in the softest voice, When you are born it is like a long, long dream. Donโt try to wake up. Just go along until it is over. Donโt be afraid. You may not know it all the time but I am with you. I am with you.
Francesca Lia BlockA kiss about apple pie a la mode with the vanilla creaminess melting in the pie heat. A kiss about chocolate, when you haven't eaten chocolate in a year. A kiss about palm trees speeding by, trailing pink clouds when you drive down the Strip sizzling with champagne. A kiss about spotlights fanning the sky and the swollen sea spilling like tears all over your legs.
Francesca Lia BlockYou're meant to have whatever your heart desires. Whatever your heart wants that much is already a part of you.
Francesca Lia BlockOkay. I wish for world peace,โ Weetzie said. โI am sorry,โ the genie said. โI cant grant that wish. Its out of my league.โ โThen I wish for an infinite number of wishes!โ Those people on fairy tales never thought of that. โPeople in fairy tales wish for that all the time,โ the genie said. โThey arent stupid. It just isnt in the records because I cant grant that type of wish.
