“Maybe there's a way to keep us in this moment. Not the sad part. But the coming together part.”
“There will come a moment when there's nothing you want more than us. Together. When you're free of every fear and there is nothing in our way.”
“In every parting there comes a moment when the beloved is already no longer with us.”
“Maybe only parts of our stories can keep us safe. The whole can feel like too much to bear.”
“...maybe hope isn't such a bad thing. Maybe it's what keeps us together.”
“I stopped for a moment, biting the inside of my cheek. This was the hardest part. "I want to be first. I know that's selfish, and maybe unattainable, and maybe shallow. But I just want to come first with someone. If that's wrong, so be it. I'll be wrong. But that's the way I feel.”
