David Levithan
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
I can't pretend to know what love is. It just is.
David Levithan
I never felt the urge to jump off a bridge, but there are times I have wanted to jump out of my life, out of my skin.
