sigh

 ““The appeal of finding beauty in darkness is something really interesting. There’s an old Italian term called terribilita, which was used to describe a beauty in nature that could be terrifying. For example, you have a really dangerous storm and this is a very different kind of beauty that can kill you. This is the thing that I really love.””

— -Abel Korzeniowski

 


Before my grandfather died, I asked him what sort 

of horse he had growing up. He said, 

Just a horse. My horse

with such tenderness 

it rubbed the bones in the ribs all wrong. 

I have always been too sensitive, a weeper 

 from a long line of weepers. 

I am the hurting kind. I keep searching for proof.
