It is an awful thing to be betrayed by your body. And it's lonely, because you feel you can't talk about it. You feel it's something between you and the body. You feel it's a battle you will never win . . . and yet you fight it day after day, and it wears you down. Even if you try to ignore it, the energy it takes to ignore it will exhaust you.

I don’t want to know anything, and I want to know it all
David Levithan
There has to be a moment at the beginning when you wonder whether you’re in love with the person or in love with the feeling of love itself.
David Levithan
Please may this not be a game. Please may this not be a game. Because if it’s a game, I know I’m going to lose.

placid, adj. Sometimes I love it when we just lie on our backs, gaze off, stay still.

...and suddenly you started singing out your love for me. My name and everything, loud enough to reach the top floors of all the buildings. I should have told you to stop, but I didn’t want you to stop. I didn’t mind if your love for me woke people up. I didn’t mind if it somehow sneaked into their sleep.
David Levithan
