That's the trouble with living things. Don't last very long. Kittens one day, old cats the next. And then just memories. And the memories fade and blend and smudge together.
Neil GaimanIf not for Death, theyโd be content to simply exist, but with Death, well, their lives will have meaning โ a boundary beyond which the living cannot cross.
Neil GaimanI will write in words of fire. I will write them on your skin. I will write about desire. Write beginnings, write of sin. Youโre the book I love the best, your skin only holds my truth, you will be a palimpsest lines of age rewriting youth. You will not burn upon the pyre. Or be buried on the shelf. Youโre my letter to desire: And youโll never read yourself. I will trace each word and comma As the final dusk descends, Youโre my tale of dreams and drama, Let us find out how it ends.
