“All night I see that abandonment is me, that the sole sobbing voice is me. We can search with lanterns, cross the shadow's lie.

All night you tell me no.” HeartPoetryGriefRejectionLieAbandonmentWhyAlejandra PizarnikThe Galloping Hour Book:The Galloping Hour: French Poems Source: The Galloping Hour: French Poems
