“Sometimes you meet someone, and it’s so clear that the two of you, on some level belong together. [...] You meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, under the strangest circumstances, and they help you feel alive. [...] It definitely makes me believe in something.”
“Your name like a song I sing to myself, your name like a box where I keep my love, your name like a nest in the tree of love, your name like a boat in the sea of love.”
Arthur.

1. black text on white background highlighted in grey which reads “Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad / I missed you so bad / I missed you so, so bad / Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad / and you should know that / I missed you so, so bad”
2. black text on white background with some words highlighted in blue which reads “[blue highlight begins] I loved you before I was born. [blue highlights ends] It doesn’t make sense, I know. [blue highlight begins] I saw your eyes before I had eyes to see. / And I’ve lived longing for your every look ever since. [blue highlight ends] That longing entered time as this body. And the / longing grew as this body waxed. And the longing grows as this body wanes. That longing will outlive / this body. [blue highlight begins] I loved you before I was born. It makes no sense, [blue highlight ends] I know. Long before eternity, I caught a / glimpse of your neck and shoulders, your ankles and toes. And I’ve been lonely for you from that instant. / That loneliness appeared on earth as this body. And my share of time has been nothing but your name / outrunning my ever saying it clearly. Your face fleeing my ever kissing it firmly once on the mouth. In / longing, I am most myself, rapt, my lamp mortal, my light hidden and singing. I give you my blank heart. / Please write on it what you wish.”
3. black text on white background highlighted in grey “I knew you before we met / And I don’t even know you yet / All I know is you’re someone I’ve always known”
4. black text on white background which reads “I feel like I’ve waited my whole life for this exact moment / I didn’t know I was before, but I know it now / I was waiting to meet you, to know you, to fall in love with you”
5. black text on white background highlighted in grey which reads “I felt you in my legs before I ever met you / And when I laid beside you for the first time, I told you / I feel you in my heart and I don’t even know you”
6. black text on white background which reads “I’ve loved you all my life. Even before we met. Part of it wasn’t even / you. It was just a promise of you.”
7. white background with text where the first three words are black and then rest of the sentence is in white text highlighted in dark blue and it reads “mother says that two souls are sometimes created together and- / -and in love before they’re born.”
