Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.
last night i told a stranger all about you, they smiled patiently with disbelief. i always knew you would succeed, no matter what you tried. and i know you did it all, in spite of me. still i'm proud to have known you for the short time that i did, proud to have been a step up on your way. proud to be a part of your illustrious career, and i know you did it all in spite of me.
Just because a friendship or relationship ends does not mean that the other person is a bad person. Nor does it mean that the other person is crazy. Nor does it mean that the other person never cared about you or any of those things we often say. It simply means that it wasn’t meant to work out and though it is horrible and unfortunate and sometimes heartbreaking, it’s not the end of the world. Other friends will come along, other boyfriends and girlfriends will come along. Sometimes things just aren’t meant to be. And that has to be okay. It has to be okay because otherwise what do we have?
Because that's what people do. They leap, and hope to God they can fly, because otherwise you just drop like a rock, wondering the whole way down, why in the *hell* did I jump? But here I am, Sarah, falling, and the only one that makes me feel like I can fly... is you.
I lost the count now of how many letters I’ve wrote from here. And I lost the count now of how many days I’ve been away from home. I remember the time that you asked me what was right or wrong. And I don’t care. What I’m missing is you.
