“Blue Is A Mysterious Color, Hue Of Illness And Nobility, The Rarest Color In Nature. It Is The Color

“Blue is a mysterious color, hue of illness and nobility, the rarest color in nature. It is the color of ambiguous depth, of the heavens and of the abyss at once; blue is the color of the shadow side, the tint of the marvelous and the inexplicable, [and] of desire…”

— Alexander Theroux, from “Blue”, The Primary Colours: Three Essays

it’s just. weirdly enough, i’d been on pins and needles about any of them dying when they were 27. and then they were 28, 29, 30 and i thought, they’re fine and i thought i’d wait a lifetime to mourn them. and a little more than 24 hours ago liam was 31 and he was alive. and now he isn’t. it’s fucking oxymoronic. he was alive. he is dead. what do you even do about that .

I know

He is the only one

For I feel surrounded

By a thousand golden fairies

In the dark

He is the only one

For he touched my soul

With his words

Before my body with fingers

For he kissed my heart

Before planting a kiss on my lips
