If you miss me as I you?

Alice Walker, from “Can It Be?” Mouths of Rain: An Anthology of Black Lesbian Thought, ed. Briona Simone Jones

They were still in the happier stage of love. They were full of brave illusions about each other, tremendous illusions, so that the communion of self with self seemed to be on a plane where no other human relations mattered. They both seemed to have arrived there with an extraordinary innocence as though a series of pure accidents had driven them together, so many accident that at last they were forced to conclude that they were for each other. They had arrived with clean hands, or so it seemed, after no traffic with the merely curious and clandestine.

F. Scott Fitzgerald, from Tender Is The Night

Lots of love,

Amulya.
