The Lovers.

And here we meet
We embrace
It’s strange
Two aliens are meeting
Estranged from each other
and strangers to each other

I can hardly speak
He speaks continuously about
himself, his walk, his
experiences
“Tell me about it”

In the first moment of our
meeting, in one split second
he holds my finger in his hand
At that very moment I felt
togetherness again
The intensity of the feeling we
once had for each other returns
Somehow this finger contact
brought back feelings for a
moment
A very short one
An intense feeling of peace
and beauty

I am so glad that we didn’t
give up this walk
We need a certain form of
ending
After this huge distance of
walking towards each other
We met unhappily
It was very human in a way
It is more dramatic
More like a film ending
than actually having this
romantic story of two lovers

Because in the end you are
really alone
whatever you do

— Marina Abramovic in reference to her walk across half the Great Wall of China  (1988) in order to meet her partner for the past 12 years, Ulay, in the middle and say goodbye. Each walked 2,500 km over 90 days. (via artcatssummer)
