“Not everyone talks in words.”
“I wanted to touch him, to tell him that even if everyone left everyone, I would never leave him, he talked and talked, his words fell through him, trying to find the floor to his sadness.”
“I hated talking, and I hated listening to everyone else stumble on their words and try to phrase things in the vaguest possible way so they wouldn’t sound dumb.”
“Everyone striving to be witty and sought-after, everyone talking and no one listening...”
“A coward talks to everyone but YOU.”
“Loneliness is amplified when everyone you know is busy talking to everyone but you.”
