“You are sunlight through a window, which I stand in, warmed. My darling.”

“Trellises for leafy vines, which will lose their foilage in the fall, should be set up over southern windows so that sunlight will penetrate into the house through the winter months.”

“Hair got caught in the sunlight darling
But I just wasted the day.
I knew it would happen this way.”

“I just want to escape my own body and project sunlight on to the walls for her to see, so she warms up and yearns for my arms.”

“Sunlight comes into your house not because you want it. It happens because you open the windows.”

“Now I climb the steps to freedom,
The open gates, I can see them.
Hands once I knew
Beckoning me through,
As the sunlight touch my face,
I can feel the warm embrace;
Arms surround me,
My life has found me…”

“the late afternoon sunlight, warm as oil, sweet as childhood…”

“I look at the side of your face as the sunlight comes
Streaming through the window in the autumn sunshine
And all the time going to Coney Island I'm thinking,
Wouldn't it be great if it was like this all the time.”

“Perhaps you can feel if you can't hear. Perhaps kind thoughts reach people somehow, even through windows and doors and walls. Perhaps you feel a little warm and comforted.”

“Be nobody's darling;
Be an outcast.
Take the contradictions
Of your life
And wrap around
You like a shawl,
To parry stones
To keep you warm.”
