THOUGHTS ARE WORDS
"Among the things I’ve never told you is that the first time I locked eyes with you, I thought I would miss you for the rest of my life, because from the very first moment, aside from getting lost in your eyes, I also understood that you would never be mine. Not in a certain way. Some things we know right from the start, we feel them immediately, but sometimes we pretend otherwise, because it’s nice to play even to lose, and that’s what happened with you: I lost everything I could lose: my mind, my heart, my breath, and my house keys... in a fraction of a second; and I would do it a thousand million times again, because losing, with you, is beautifully heartbreaking.”
from "Davanti agli occhi" by Roberto Emanuelli
