It was romantic,
Everything seemed idyllic,
There she was everywhere,
And I too was there somewhere,

With our hearts still beating,
Like a stream always flowing,
In my memories and around me she was glowing,
Like a midsummer fair,
Where joys with merriments have an eternal affair,
Where moments end to begin again,
In this world my love Irma, I shall love you again and again!”

Source: Divine by Blood
“Loving him was all interpretation, creative in its way. We barely used language at all to communicate: he sulked and thought I was putting him down if I made complicated remarks, and sometimes I felt numb at the compromise and self-suppression I submitted to. Yet beyond that it was all guesswork; we were thinking for two. The darkened air of the flat was full of the hints we made. The stupidity and the resentment were dreadful at times. But then in sex he lost his awkwardness. He shows his capacity to change as I rambled over him now with my fingertips and watched him glow and gulp with desire; his clothes seemed to shrivel off him and he lay there making his naked claim for the only certainty in his life. It wasn't something learnt, I suspected, from the guys before me who'd picked him up and fucked him and fucked him around. It was a kind of gift for giving, and while he did whatever I wanted it emerged as the most important thing there was for him. It was all the harder, then, when the resentment returned and I longed for him to go.”
