If I love you more than you love me, I’m as good as dead. Yet I can’t make myself take it back. I can’t just walk away from you, because every time you pass by me without smiling, without touching my hand, or at least making eye contact, it feels like I’m dying inside.

Were these ninja birds? Green Berets with feathers?

I'd just stepped out of the kiddie pool and into the deep end, with no floaties. And drowning was not an option.

The queen was my favorite chess piece. Unlike the women I knew in real life, she was powerful.
