To You,

“ There are a few things in life so beautiful they hurt: swimming in the ocean while it rains, reading alone in empty libraries, the sea of stars that appear when you're miles away from the neon lights of the city, bars after 2am, walking in the wilderness, all the phases of the moon, the things we do not know about the universe, and you. ”

“One day, whether you are 14, 28 or 65, you will stumble upon someone who will start a fire in you that cannot die. However, the saddest, most awful truth you will ever come to find - is they are not always with whom we spend our lives.”

Strangers to friends then strangers again

“Things never end the way you expect them to. Though our time with each other was always vibrant and loving, the end came suddenly and spineless, without send off or ceremony, slipping away quietly into the dark. An ordinary moment, like any other, that just happened to be our last.”
