Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Your eyes are the pale gray of a storm. Your laughter is a swift current of air that I can’t stop hearing, no matter the hour. Your voice is mist, intangible yet penetrating, filtering into my dreams and raiding my slumber. Your name is an addiction, soaking itself into my tongue, nesting itself into my throat, so that every other word I speak threatens to slip, to utter that name.”
Any love worth sharing’s gotta have jagged edges, especially if it’s forbidden.
“You’re my weakness, inspiring me to break my own rules. You’re my strength, granting me the fortitude to endure without you. Oh, but it’s a cruel paradox, yet there we are. You’re worth…” he sucks in a tremulous breath, “…every crack in my soul. You’re worth the loss and longing.”
That’s the unprecedented creature whom I adore. It has nothing to do with idolizing the past.”
“What if that love breaks my heart?” “Hate breaks hearts. Love reinforces them.”
We’re tender one day, raving the next. We’re mood swings and compromise, desire and kinship. We’re separate, and we’re one.
