A Writer's Ruminations

262 notes "When I turn towards you
in bed, I have a feeling
of stepping into a church
that was burned down long ago
and where only the darkness in the eyes of the icons
has remained
filled with the flames
which annihilated them."
—
Henrik Nordbrandt, from “Our Love Is Like Byzantium” (translated from the Danish by the author and Alexander Taylor)
