"because you said that being alive is beautiful, life became pretty to me too."
"you have the right to be angry, you know." "that may be true, but it wont change what happened."
"i wanted to meld our lives together.. for us to lean on each other on a sofa in a home we could call our own."
"the source of all suffering is attachment [...] attachment is already rampant, and only suffering remains."
"as expected, I like her too much for that" COME HEREEEEEE
"that ominous feeling, like excessive humidity on a summer night, like sticky tar on melted asphalt..."
"the words, slow and low, bloomed like a single color in an otherwise colorless world."
"to some people, the very existence of a person on this earth is hope in and of itself."
"it was as if a warning light turned on within my heart. this hope stalls my rationality and makes me want to be more selfish."
"but to me, you are... singular. an indelible mark seared into my psyche."
"loving someone to the point of losing myself can be worth it."
"everyone has a bad side, the only difference is whether they're bad to you or not."
"so, kind stranger, if, one day, while wandering through a barren land you find a river of love flowing out, i hope you stop walking..."
"... the heavy love he though he has buried and forgotten was, in truth, seeping out with every breath, soaking the ground beneath him."
"the unspoken love that i held within was like a flood of emotion threatening to overflow..."
"the act of preserving an item that nobody remembers, even if it serves as a meaning to memories only i am able to recall..."
you're gonna be okay. you're okay. it's okay.
thank you for staying alive
