Famous Dominic Riccitello Quotes

“Time never touched you. It touched me and then I seemed to regret everything. Your hair in my face, eyes in my mind, a darkness I found in you. But you don’t regret. You hold within. You feel in memory because love lost is still a love once had. You remember passion, conversations over dinner, moments interwoven before each other. We die to live, not die to cry over memories which don’t last our expected timeframe.”

“I’m not thankful for being fucked over, I’m thankful for what I took from it. What I learned. What I taught myself in that particular moment. I'm grateful someone was able to take me there and let me be in that moment - not with them, but with myself. How my emotions could surrender to someone and make me feel everything I felt. It destroyed me, but I made my way through; and I look back years from, and I still love him, I do.”

“I was pacing in your kitchen. Thinking of ways I’d miss you. How the summer brings light. The night brings dark. Our minds intertwining and becoming nothing but just you and I in a moment with nothing else. People need truth and the truth is, I didn’t need you. I wanted you. You wanted me, I assume. This is why we worked. We didn’t need each other. We didn’t fill a void in each other. We flowed in time and when our time expired, it was over. You were floating, I was flowing. I was searching and in a bittersweet reality, I was going. Experiences mean more than what we give them. I love and I lose and it’s never a loss because experiences don’t bring losses, they give strength. We learn, we love, and we move on.”

“I remember things like dates down to minutes, what they smelled like, how they walked and how they tug their hands in their pockets. I twine myself in nostalgia of moments and not necessarily the people in them. I long for the idea of the past and occasionally forget the present. I find myself lost in memories, just looking to recreate the moment; forgetting the past is in the past and what we have is now.”

“Nostalgia hits because it was real. It was pure innocence of a moment. It wasn’t trying, it wasn’t based on ego. Nostalgic moments are times of existence when nothing truly mattered. It was you, your thoughts and yourself in a second. It’s a feeling of purity in a moment so truthful to your own being. That’s why it mattered enough to make an impact.”
