Pablo Neruda
It is not so much light that fallsover the worldextended by your bodyits suffocating snow, as brightness, pouring itself out of you, as if you wereburning inside. Under your skin the moon is alive. Pablo Neruda

As if you were on fire from within. The moon lives in the lining of your skin. Pablo Neruda
