when i fall, if i fall, can i take you with me?

some things are better left unknown.






So much of the city is our bodies.
Places in us old light still slants to.

Places that no longer exist but are full of feeling,
like phantom limbs.




Even the city carries ruins in its heart.
Longs to be touched in places only it remembers.

(Few buildings, few lives are built so well even their ruins are beautiful.)

you are the home we drive back home to, & the
prince of every budding empire knows it.

God, I love this so much. It helps that the photo looks like it was taken in Glasgow.

Few buildings, few lives are built so well even their ruins are beautiful.

Perfect.

This prompt is perfect for bandom because the boys are so proud of their home towns (Fob Chicago, MCR New Jersey)
