Oh, Apollo, this is how you love a mortal.
You trace his neck with the tip of your fingers, all the way to his chest – then you grab his heart, and never let go. When the palm of your hand meets the beating of his flesh you understand, he will do everything. He will go up in your flames. He won’t survive.
This is how you love a mortal – you don’t.

it’s never a god who burns, but his lover (via adaestra)
