“You were meant to be right here right now...so make the most of it!”
― Ken Poirot

“Right Here.

Beside a living, breathing human
being who cares for me. I can see
it in the cool lagoons of his eyes,
hear it in the timbre of his voice
when he speaks my name.

Right here.

Where the warmth of his skin
tempers the February cold and
the thinnest beam of his inner
light overcomes winter's pall.
He is a candle in the wilderness.

Right here.

Where the omnipresent specter
of death takes flight, awed
by the power of the two of us,
hearts beating in unison, as we
stumble through the darkness

toward one another.”
― Ellen Hopkins, Smoke

“When you asked if I was happy,
I thought you meant right here,
right now,
talking to you.

Otherwise,
the answer
would have been
no.”
― Kristina Mahr

“They asked where I was going. I said nowhere. I’m here.”
― Dominic Riccitello
