  • "We're perfectly fitting pieces for different puzzles." Epik High, Amor Fati

  • "Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design / And the echo of my mother's words, 'baby don't you play with fire'." Cage The Elephant, Too Late To Say Goodbye

  • "For whatever we lose (like a you or a me) / it's always ourselves we find in the sea." E. E. Cummings, Maggie and Milly and Molly and May

  • "Father, you told me to love these flightless birds more than the stars. But you never told me that I'd find one woven from starlight, and you never said I would love him enough to forsake the whole sky."

  • "Two billion years ago, we're bare soul matter, resonating in tune with starbursts and supernovas. / We've had a good run, and we're making time for one final cycle around our dying sun. / We aren't afraid. We know our reunion will be another three billion years in the making, and that when and if we meet again, we probably won't remember each other. / But we're okay with it, because no matter how we manifest–with set convictions or souls warped by time and circumstance–we still make a promise that we'll somehow meet. And somehow know. / Because every bit of you resonates in me. And I resonate in you. / And as we burst apart and hurtle into oblivion, the humor in what you say, and the profound sense of peace that fills me afterwards stay with me every step of the million light years that spread between us. / Until then, / Catch you on the flip side."

  • "It's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else. It's someone who makes you a better person–well, actually they don't make you a better person... you do that yourself–because they inspire you. A soulmate is someone who you carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you, and accepted you, and believed in you before anyone else did or when no one else would. And no matter what happens... you'll always love them." Dawson's Creek

  • "Things to say when in love: i. I want to make you planet. ii. I will put the galaxy in your hair. iii. Your kisses are a mouthful of firewater. iv.

  • "You will never be completely at home again, because a part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of knowing and loving people in more than one place." Miriam Adeney
