Color Study: Lavender Blue By Ezra Leary

I have truly loved twice

I don’t believe in third time is the charm

Because each time it nearly broke me

As if it was the first and the last

A decade between the two

There is no room for another

I feel that the third will do what it’s meant to

Break me down until there’s nothing left

―Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo

the way that the open window at nighttime will generate smells that only existed in a dream from when you were 8

the lover’s almanac : part one.
