Raptures

"To be moved is to be alive... it's all kinds of things. It's tears, and it's shock, and it's flabbergasting. And it feels like a profound sorrow when I am reluctant to say, I love this, I love this. I've never seen anything as beautiful in my life; that flower gives me a reason to be alive."
-Ross Gay​

lilies
