This hurts much more than I thought it would. I just wanted to be with you. Is that so difficult to understand?
I wanted you exactly how you are- the imperfections, the quirks. Everything that makes you so unlike anyone else.


Perhaps it was a waste of my time.

I want to believe that it wasn't, yet all I know is that I am still alone.




[The friendship we made
Is a waste of our time.
There's no one left here
To show a future that's kind.

["Breathe", I-Empire, Angels and Airwaves]

For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can’t readily accept the God formula, the big answers don’t remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command or faith a dictum. I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.

[Charles Bukowski]

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say.
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.


What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?
I've told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means.


You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed



But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay!
(Trust Me)


[Excerpts from "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge by My Chemical Romance]

["Supermassive Black Hole", Black Holes and Revelations, Muse]

you just don't get it, do you?
I need you. I love you.

One day, I am hoping that you will understand. One day, I know that you will either get it or I will move on with my life without you. And I do not want that.

I am here and I am waiting.

[Angels and Airwaves, "The Adventure", We Don't Need to Whisper]

"You can sit beside me when the world comes down
If it doesn't matter, then just turn around.
You be the queen and I'll be your clown.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down."


["Mona Lisa", The All American Rejects, When the World Comes Down]

"When love is not madness, it is not love" Pedro Calderon de la Barca

… we kiss. And it feels like we have just shrugged off the world. –Jim Shahin

i will always love you.
i still love you.
i am sorry that i will never tell you.


i love you.
always and always.

I do not love you except because I love you;
I go from loving to not loving you,
From waiting to not waiting for you
My heart moves from cold to fire.

I love you only because it's you the one I love;
I hate you deeply, and hating you
Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you
Is that I do not see you but love you blindly.

Maybe January light will consume
My heart with its cruel
Ray, stealing my key to true calm.

In this part of the story I am the one who
Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you,
Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.


[Pablbo Neruda]

[Stay Close, Don't Go- Secondhand Serenade]

Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
-Dave Barry

i don't know what to tell you. all i know is that i miss you. and that i think you deserve better than what you give yourself.

even as friends, i will always love you.

Wake me up.
I want to be alive.
To be sought.
To be wanted.
To be loved.

I live in this world, like everyone else. And everyone in this world deserves the happiness of having someone want them exactly the way they are, unequivocally and without exception.

Never say goodbye. Because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.
Peter Pan

[Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie]

[lyrics: "Stay Close, Don't Go"- Secondhand Serenade, Awake]

What can I do?
[say it's true.]
When everything that matters breaks in two.
[say it's true.]
I'll never ask for anyone but you.

all i want
is for you to grab hold
of my sin
from the inside

surely,
from that vantage,
you can squash it forever

leaving
me
free
to
truly love

all the
women who aren't you.

It's a new day
It's a bright day
Even when you stand in the dark
It's just that
You've been broken into fifty pieces
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me

Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone

Another pale moon
Shines like high noon
Midnight never felt so cold alone
It's just that you're uneasy
When you need me
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me

Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can say it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone

Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me

Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone

Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone

I do not care what car you drive, where you live. If you know some one who knows someone who knows some one. If your clothes are this years cutting edge. If your trust fund is unlimited. If you are a-list, b-list or never heard of you list. I only care about the words that flutter from your mind. They are the only thing that you truly own. The only thing I will remember you by. I will not fall in love with your bones or your skin. I will not fall in love with the places you have been. I will not fall in love with anything but the words that flutter from your extraordinary mind.
