scary musical obsessed
Its almost scary how amateur I am when it comes to musicals - Im a musical goer, but I am not as obsessed with musicals as perhaps some of my theatrical friends are.
people stranger harsh
Most people, I've noticed, are instinctively harsh to strangers. They expect every approach to be an attack, every question to be an interruption.
would-be
Slowly would be better than not at all.
giving-up way slipping
You're giving up. You're slipping into being miserable and if you are being miserable, then it's all about you again. But it's not all about you. Love doesn't work that way.
want getting-what-you-want what-you-want
It was so much easier when I didn't want anything. Not getting what you want can make you cruel.
missing next happens
I felt like I was missing something. Missing you more. Missing whatever was going to happen next.
thinking love-is twins
love is tied to truth. I think of them as unhappily conjoined twins.
want matter
What i want is for what i want to actually matter.
two people kind
There is no word for our kind of friendship. Two people who don't see each other a lot, but can make each other effortlessly happy
elevators stairs
Life tells you to take the elevator, but love tells you to take the stairs.
love-you mean games
They never played games with each other, they never had tow worry where they stood, because if either of them had a moment of wavering, the other would say I love you and would mean it and all doubts were forgiven because in this one case it was found that love conquers all.
i-can
You are so close, and I can’t reach you.
games people vampire
People read vampire novels and say, Oh I want to read another vampire novel. People read fantasy, and theyre like, Oh I love fantasy. I dont know that people are necessarily finishing Hunger Games and immediately wanting to read another dystopian tale.
mean odds trying
I know the odds are all against me and I know you might not feel this way too but I know I would rather die trying to know if I could mean something to you
