#31 There will never be someone like you.
I’ve finally hit upon the reason I’m writing these letters. Since I know we won’t spend our lives together as I expected, I’ve found a way to give you all the love and affection you will henceforth go without.

#29 At least Hell is certain damnation; living hell is neither here nor there.
I imagine that the furnaces of Hell have split the ground between us, and the flames are rising up to distort our vision of one another.

#27 Running through the fields of sorrow.
I cannot even be sure that this place is where we sat, in my dreams, since there’s no evidence of us in the emptiness. There’s something between life and death, and that is here.

Even if we are to part forever, and meet each other again only in oblivion, whatever that does or doesn’t involve, you will forever be an old friend to me.

#25 Pity the sirens; we live a lonely and loveless existence.

#22 Constant overstimulation numbs me, but I would not want you any other way.
Imagine if the one person in the world that you cared about could barely even tolerate your presence. Imagine if they winced internally with each passing second in public with you. I wouldn’t be the first to bear the shame of someone else’s shame, but I never thought that I would have to do so.
