Sometimes life doesn’t happen in chronological order.

Every time the song looped, all I heard was the part about the lies – and how they weigh you down. Tonight, as I drive toward Detroit in my Jeep, I know what those words...

I can’t do it anymore… The way you consume my mind when we aren’t together? I don’t have time for it anymore. I’ve got more important things to think about now than your little weak...

The weight of lies will bring you down, follow you to every town ’cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there.

You probably faked passing out the other day, just so you could be carried in my hot, sweaty, manly arms.

No puedes enfadarte con un final real. Algunos de ellos son feos. Son los falsos felices para siempre los que deberían enojarte. No todo el mundo tiene un felices para siempre. La vida es real...

His fingers have been slowly lacing through my hair.

This girl is the rest of my life.

No, I mean earlier. Where’d you go? You weren’t here with me because no, nothing happened. I could see on your face that something was wrong, so I didn’t do it. But now you need...

I saw you in bed with my boyfriend last night. I really don’t appreciate you getting massage oil on my cucumbers. Whore.” I laugh and it feels odd, laughing out loud at my own thoughts....

She smiles when she sees me. That’s it. All she did just now was smile, but all of a sudden, my chest is on fire, and it feels as if a wave of heat just...

Wäre ich ein Zimmermann, würde ich dir ein Fenster zu meiner Seele zimmern.Wenn du hineinschauen würdest, sähest du dich selbst in der Scheibe gespiegelt.Und dann wüsstest du, dass meine Seele einSpiegelbild von deiner ist.

How do you not fall in love with him?”The tears begin flowing just as quickly as they were ceasing. I grab yet another tissue. “I don’t not fall in love with him. I don’t not fall...

I wanted to cry because I needed you there with me so bad. I knew in that moment that I was in love with you. I was in love with the way you loved me....

I’d rather have a uncertainty than certainty. I don’t want to know what’s going to happen. It can’t be good.

I’m pretty sure my addiction to reading has just reached a whole new level.

Second, I’m also not allowed to break your damn heart. And last, I’m not allowed to fucking break your damn heart.

I know it’s hard for you to allow yourself to feel this. You’ve gone so long training yourself to block the feelings and emotions out any time someone touches you.

He never looks away, searching my eyes for truth. His reaction has left my heart pounding, shocked at how quick he was to dismiss any fault I may have had. I wish he was just...

Good girl. And wasted. Don’t forget to get really wasted.

This thing about you that you think is your flaw – it’s the reason I’m falling in love with you.

I’ve never been so sure about the rest of my life than I am in this moment. This girl is the rest of my life.

I’m really hoping he’s being genuine because I can already tell he isn’t the kind of guy a girl gets a simple crush on. He’s the kind of guy you fall hard for, and the...

I’m a fool.At least i’m a self aware fool.

I have always enjoyed kissing the girls I’ve kissed in the past but only because I was attracted to them. It didn’t really have anything to do with them in particular.When I kissed all the...

It’s amazing what the sound of a voice you’ve been longing to hear can do to your heart. He spoke five words just now, but in the time it took him to speak those five...

I need one of those chapter breaks. I just want to catch my breath, but I have no idea how.

She’s watching me: strands of hair stand between me and a full view of her face. She’s beautiful, but in a shameful way. One I’m not sure I’m supposed to appreciate. Everything about her is...

No, Sky. You didn’t tell her everything…you told you everything. Those things happened to you, not to someone else. They happened to Hope. They happened to Sky. They happened to the best friend that I...
