It's only the body that's gone. Only the body. There's a part that doesn't go in the ground, a part that stays inside you forever.

But words are more powerful than anything.

I was only glad to be saved and never once thought to ask why.

Why is it that weeks and months and years go by so quickly, all in a blur, but moments last forever?

A new word. Bright with possibilities. A flawless pearl to turn over and over in my hand, then put away for safekeeping.

Sometimes, when you catch someone unaware at just the right time and in just the right light, you can catch sight of what they will be.

Meet me where the sky touches the sea. Wait for me where the world begins.
