01UndatedWhat if I were to wish upon a blood moon that I could have you standing here and I standing there? And when it happens to arrive in eighteen years, that you’ll be there, waiting for me like I’ll be waiting for you. As we did on the night where the moon shined down and I saw you standing in white with eyes that could ignite and a fire which couldn’t quite die.Dominic Riccitello / quote ↗

12UndatedI don’t believe he deserves the thousands of poems I’ve written about him, but life doesn’t follow rules. We do things for people who don’t necessarily deserve it. But we liked it, we loved it and fell in love enough to write about it.Dominic Riccitello / quote ↗
14UndatedGive second chances, third chances, but not a fourth, a fifth, a sixth and so on. Appreciate yourself and understand your worth – know it takes time for people to change, to become better. But know what you can take and what you deserve.Dominic Riccitello / quote ↗
15UndatedI never expected to fall in love. I never expected to float or fall a thousand feet and create the crevice I called my life.

20UndatedI loved you, I did. I believe I even sold myself a bit: on your love, my lust, your hair and just the way we stood there. How the air smelled of you, the way your shirt was cursed with blues. The way we danced by the ocean in front your mini-garden. The white fence, your loveliness and the heavenly kisses. It’ll always be the sheets, lying beside, holding your arm and kissing your hair in a loving stride.Dominic Riccitello / quote ↗

24UndatedYou have to grow. You have to be. You have to love yourself unconditionally.Dominic Riccitello / quote ↗
