Some people get luck handed to them, a second chance, a save. It can happen heroically, or by a simple coincidence, but there are those who don’t get luck on a shiny platter, who end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, who don’t get saved.
We laugh and it’s real, but a dark cloud hovers over us once the sound is stolen by the wind.

It’s amazing how the things you remember forever are the things you’d rather forget and the things you desperately want to grasp onto seem to slip away like sand in the wind.
I just pray to God he doesn’t shove me down and break me, because I’m already in too many pieces and I just don’t know how much more breaking I can take.
“In the existence of our lives, there is a single coincidence that brings us together and for a moment, our hearts beat as one.”
But the thing I regret—will always regret—is going into my room on my twelfth birthday.
“I can’t stop myself with you.”
“That’s you. Callie, you’re the only person that’s ever made me feel happy about anything. That night you saved me, you changed something in me—you made me want to live.”
“I don’t want to let you go.”
It’s a moment I’ll remember forever, because it belongs to me.
The way I feel is irreversible; overtaken, wanted, needed, connected. I’ll never be able to let it go.
It hurts, even though it’s not supposed to; the thought of me leaving her, of her leaving me, of never having her again.
