The sinful are always moved by the love of the pure.

“This was how they defined their love - by how deeply they missed each other when they were together. They felt the loss before it happened, and their love was defined by that loss. They hungered even as they ate, thirsted even as they drank. My mother once told me to live my life as if I were already dead, “Live each day as if you know it’s gonna be gone tomorrow,” she had said. This was how my parents loved each other, with a desperate, melancholy love, a fierce nostalgia for the present.”
—Caucasia by Danzy Senna
I thought I understood it, that I could grasp it, but I didn’t, not really. Only the smudgeness of it; the pink-slippered, all-contained, semi-precious eagerness of it.
I didn’t realize it would sometimes be more than whole, that the wholeness was a rather luxurious idea. Because it’s the halves that halve you in half.
I didn’t know, don’t know, about the in-between bits. The gory bits of you, and the gory bits of me.
Song by the Daylights. Available on ITUNES. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/i-ho…
After my girlfriend moved away for graduate school, I wanted to create something different to express my feelings for her. I secretly created a song and video with my friends the Daylights in hopes that it would be passed around and get to her organically. WITH YOUR HELP, we can meet this goal and it can stand as a symbol of what we can do as an digital social community. This is dedicated to anyone who is separated from people they love.
I will let you know if it works on my Twitter @WalterCMay
