No, I can never fall in love with you again cause I never fell out of love
We heal up through being loved, and through loving others. We don't heal by forming a secret society of one - by assessing about the only other 'one' we might admit, and being doomed to disappointment.
Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?
Why it's always I will kill for you love or I will die for you love but why not I will live for you my love
Ilya Kaminsky, from "Musica Humana", Dancing in Odessa: Poems
-Ocean Vuong, from “Eurydice”, Night Sky with Exit Wounds
You don't like the bitterness of coffee until you are with the person with whom you have spent eternities together in the past, so the realization hits that it's the only pathway to your memories of childhood.
So you sip the bitterness calmly in hope of turning back time and meeting the daffodils you once grew together in your garden of innocence.....

This for all the broken friendships we couldn't save
This for all the words we didn't say cause we were afraid they will not understand
This for all the promises which were not meant to fulfil
This for all the more than friends less than lovers
— Anne Sexton, Imitations of Drowning
-Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility
