A Lovers Discourse

"Another day, in the rain, we're waiting for the boat in the lake; from happiness, this time, the same burst of annihilation sweeps through me. This is how it happens sometimes, misery or joy engulfs me, without any particular tumult ensuing: nor any pathos: I am dissolved, not dismembered; I fall, I flow, I melt...I swoon in order to escape that density, that clogging which makes me into a responsible subject."

*Roland Barthes
