“Am I just chasing it because it's the hardest thing for me to get and I want to prove I can do it?”

“All I want, is for you to love me. Not because of what I can do or what I look like, or because I love you - just because I am.”

“Perhaps it's chasing me. But I don't think it will ever catch me because I am moving fast.”

“I want to just be lazy and I want some of the people around me to be doing things, because that makes me feel comfortable and safe - and I want some of them to be doing nothing at all, because they can be graceful and companionable for me.”

“I press my lips to the curve of her neck, just to prove I am strong, just to prove I can do it. But I can't. I'm going to bite.”

“There's nothing hard about it. But I get praised for the hardest of things I do, and I do some of the hardest of things. Things like waking up in the morning and going to sleep at night, all alone except for when I'm with someone; and it's getting harder and harder.”
