thanks to impermanence, everything is possible

to do

be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like words that are now written in a very foreign tongue. do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. and the point is: to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.

when you're finished struggling, are you free tonight?
you may not find all that you're after. in the end, I hope it doesn't matter
but you only know the one I’ve been. I’ve shed a thousand skins since then
I did this to me, and I will deal with it accordingly
we've never met yet share regret, never ending, never mending what we will have broken when we first collide
always the wrong one, never the right words. bruise, glow, take it slow
did you save me from drowning, only to leave me on the shore?
god loves everybody. don't remind me
if you are the desert, I'll be the sea. if you ever hunger, hunger for me
I had to crawl the halls to ask when we might meet before you left. you said, "maybe tomorrow, or never again"
