{"quotes":[{"text":"Time, I think, is like walking backward away from something: say, from a kiss. First there is the kiss; then you step back, and the eyes fill up your vision, then the eyes are framed in the face as you step further away; the face then is part of a body, and then the body is framed in a doorway, then the doorway framed in the trees beside it. The path grows longer and the door smaller, the trees fill up your sight and the door is lost, then the path is lost in the woods and the woods lost in the hills. Yet somewhere in the center still is the kiss. That's what time is like.","author":"John Crowley","tags":["backwards","description","distance","kiss","memory","time","walking-away"],"id":4522,"author_id":"John+Crowley"},{"text":"There are many places you need to be, but there is nowhere to reach.

And I loved you Like a forest loves the spring Waiting for the smallest signs Of you coming back And breathing life back into me Warming me up On my brightest fields And my darkest valleys But you stayed away. And I loved you But fate seemed to have Different plans for us. I guess now I see that It was a one-sided love Peeking through The large glasses of a binocular I am here, so very close But you are far-far-away...","author":"Veronika Jensen","tags":["broken-heart","distance","love","sadness"],"id":7073,"author_id":"Veronika+Jensen"},{"text":"We stand a professional distance apart, as if I can’t feel his pain screaming in my head.
