song moving night
I always think of each night as a song. Or each moment as a song. But now I'm seeing we don't live in a single song. We move from song to song, from lyric to lyric, from chord to chord. There is no ending here. It's an infinite playlist.
sleep night sky
When is a night over? Is it the start of sunrise or the end of it? Is it when you finally go to sleep or simply realize that you have to? When the club closes or when you everyone leaves? "It's over when you decide it's over," she says. "When you call it a night. The rest is just a matter of where the sun is in the sky.
mean sky expectations
I mean, what if love isn't a yes-or-no question? It's not either you're in love or you're not. I mean, aren't there different levels? And maybe these things, like words and expectations and whatever, don't go on top of the love. Maybe it's like a map, and they all have their own place, and then when you see it from the sky - whoa.
years moments hours
Moments into minutes. Minutes into hours. Hours into days. Days into years. Years into possibility. This will linger.
character writing stories
I was attempting to write the story of my life. It wasn't so much about plot. It was much more about character.
order law tvs
Then I go in the den and turn on Law & Order, since the only thing i can really count on in life is that whenever I turn on the TV, there will be a Law & Order episode.
sleep order thorns
You know what’s a great metaphor for love? Sleeping beauty. Because you have to plow through this incredible thicket of thorns in order to get to beauty, and even then, when you get there, you still have to wake her up. — Tiny Cooper
wish done able
i wish i were someone else, even though i know i'll never, ever be able to get away from what i've done and what's been done to me.
senior years missing
Because it is senior year I have begun to see things as potential absences. The things I love will become the things I'll miss.
mean floating belief
it's the belief, not the words, that mean everything. it's the floating.
fall want
I don't want to fall. All I want to do is stand on solid ground.
You will always be my always.
matter possibility used
We are so used to releasing words, we don't know what to do with them if they stay. No matter how many times we let them go, they come back. The words that matter always stay.
believe kissing thinking
A year. A thousand kisses. And now a thousand one, a thousand two. There are so many other place we could have ended up, but I have to believe none of them would have felt this right. "All I want is you" is not entirely true. I want so much more, and with you I think I can get it.
