˚⊱♡⊰˚
in this artificial light
our heart burns with the heat of a thousand suns
translate my image and spit it back out, i love you
its not a movie its a transmission from a dying sun
i watch to remember who i was in other timelines
the narrative broke and i was still inside it
we'll see each other again (fingers crossed)
i gaze until i fall into the film’s silence
all gifts and all sorrow are shared here
i believe in divine pattern recognition
i took a screenshot of the whole world
i woke up with this longing
there is no image
˚⊱♡⊰˚
i love you
