Indelible, adj. That first night, you took your finger and pointed to the top of my head, then traced a line between my eyes, down my nose, over my lips, my chin, my neck, to the center of my chest. It was so surprising. I knew I would never mimic it. That one gesture would be yours forever. David Levithan
About This Quote

The story that a man and a woman had a first night together is known as the “first night” in English, but in French it is called “l’Indelible.” The term means “that which cannot be erased.” In this case, the word “indelible” is used to describe something that cannot be forgotten or replaced or changed. I can't forget that moment we shared. It was indelible. My heart remembered that night and still pours out for you, just like it did then.
