- find someone who makes you realize three things: one, that home is not a place, but a feeling. two, that time is not measured by a clock, but by moments. and three, that heartbeats are not heard, but felt and shared.
- i may be on the side of the angels, but don't think for one second think that i am one of them.
- who hasn't asked oneself, am i a monster or is this what it means to be human?
- this is what i like about photographs: they're proof that once, even if just for a heartbeat, everything was perfect.
- all my grief says the same thing: this isn’t how it’s supposed to be. this isn’t how it’s supposed to be. and the world laughs. holds my hope by the throat. says: but this is how it is.
- you love him, you do, and here’s the miracle: he loves you too. you are allowed to have him. you love each other, you do, and here’s the tragedy: it’s not enough. you are allowed to watch the sun swallow him whole and burn him up. to stain your fingers to the bone holding him together. to count the constellations in his eyes as they blink out. you are not allowed to save him.
- and if i asked you to name all the things that you love, how long would it take for you to name yourself?
- maybe i'll se you again in another life, if this one wasn't enough.
- it's hard to turn the page when you know someone won't be in the next chapter. but the story must go on.
- if love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.
