We just want to walk. Our legs need to move to keep our minds from collapsing.

dissonance, n. Nights when I need to sleep and you can't. Days when I want to talk to you and you won't. Hours when every noise you make interferes with my silence. Weeks when there is a buzzing in the air, and we both pretend we don't here it.

Breathing, n You had asthma as a child, had to carry around an inhaler. But when you grew older, it went away. You could run for miles and it was fine. Sometimes I worry that this is happening to me in reverse. The older I get, the more I lose my ability to breathe.

Image
love is tied to truth. I think of them as unhappily conjoined twins.

We switch to another language-- not our invented language or the language we've learned from our lives. As we walk further up the mountain, we speak the language of silence. This language gives us time to think and move. We can be here and elsewhere at the same time.

Maybe there's a way to keep us in this moment. Not the sad part. But the coming together part.

Image
I want to take back the secrets I told you so I can decide now whether to tell them to you again. I want to take back the piece of me that lies in you, to see if I truly miss it. I want to take back at least half the “I love you”s, because it feels safer that way.

When it all come down to it, the thing that matters most in a relationship is principles [...] We have the same idea what’s right and what’s wrong, and that’s got us through any number of things. If you can have that with someone, then you’re most of the way toward love. Not just lover-love. Any kind of love.

So I said I wanted you to stay, even though nothing could stay the same.

Image
having someone think of me that way was like discovering a new window in the room i'd lived in all my life.

Image
I have taken advantage of other people's weaknesses in order to cover my own.
David Levithan
Image
I want to write my life. I want to be able to write my life. You are a second away from saying it. You have no idea how much I love you.
David Levithan
Image
I am stronger than words and I am bigger than the box I'm in, and then I see her in the crowd and I fall apart.
David Levithan
Image
But I want to feel like life matters. I had something real with you, but then the realness scared me. I decided to go for other things instead.
David Levithan
Image
I feel the universe is telling me something. And it doesn't even matter if it's true or not. What matters is that I feel it, and believe it.
David Levithan
Image
There is certainty in a ring. The non-ending, the non-beginning. The ongoing. The way it holds on to you not because it's fastened or stretched or adhered. It holds on because it fits.
David Levithan
Image
This is my life, I think. I am an accumulation of objects.

Image
Putting up with the fear of being with the wrong person because you can't deal with the fear of being alone.
