Quotes 💚

🌱Ben repeats my name like a prayer.
"Jones," like l'm a goddess.
"Jones," like l'm his world
.

🪐Sink in with me.
Decay with me.
Become bones with me
.

🌱I would melt into the soil and rot, pushed to the edge of desire for eternity by the maggots and worms in my carcass.

🪐A perfect cycle, life and death playing out like poetry for billions of years.
Until we destroyed it.
