And if it's space you need, I'll fly to the moon,
Hoping to come back and rescue you
But that's only if you want me to.

"When someone is in your heart, they’re never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times."

I just want someone to say to me "I'll always be there when you wake"

I love no one but you, I have discovered. But you are far away and I am here alone. Then this is my life and maybe, however unlikely, I’ll find my way back there. Or maybe, one day, I’ll settle for second best. And on that same day, hell will freeze over, the sun will burn out and the stars will fall from the sky.

"I don't really know where I'll go or what I'll do when I'm free. All I know is my life would be empty without you in it."
Memories were fine, but you couldn’t touch them, smell them, or hold them.
They were never exactly as the moment had been, and they faded with time.
-P.S. I Love You

When you're young everything feels like the end of the world.
But it's not, it's just the beginning, you might have to meet a few more jerks,
but one day you're gonna meet a boy who treats you the way you deserve to be treated.
And it's going to feel like the sun rises and sets with you.

take your left hand. okay now, your neck. find it. you know where.
take that hand and slide it up your neck, up the side.
let it rest there.
feel that? that's you. your heart beating.
pumping blood.
it means you're alive.
be grateful.

happiness isn't always the best way to be happy.
-where the wild things are

jesus, i’m not going to be one of those people who sits around talking about what they’re gonna do. i’m just going to do it. imagining the future is a kind of nostalgia... you spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how you’ll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. you just use the future to escape the present. -looking for alaska

We were supposed to wake up one day when we were older, holding on forever. But we flew past each other like windows on a train, the flashing of a frame. I can't hold on but I can't let go. A snapshot in my mind of a love that's stuck in time. I saw it slip away.

What I'm trying to say isn't really new. It's just the things that happen to me when I'm reminded of you. Like when I hear your name or see a place that you've been, or see a picture of your grin or pass a house that you've been in. It sets of something in me that I can't explain, and I really just can't wait to see you again.
'All you need is love' is a lie
cause we had a love, but we still said goodbye

Look to the past and remember and smile. And maybe tonight I can breathe for awhile. I'm not in the scene, I think I'm falling asleep. But then all that it means is I'll always be dreaming of you.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't been in such a hurry to move forward. There comes a point when it becomes impossible to go back.

I know all your favorite songs, and you tell me about your dreams. I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.

These memories I keep won't keep me warm at night.
The coldest part is the heart we share. It's breaking apart,
and you're not even here to say things will get better.

i do understand the impulse. the impulse to put your hand out & want someone to be there at the end of your reach. to want someone to be close to. to want to kiss or touch even if it's wrong. the point is you can't control these feelings. even if they're wrong, they're there. they're always there.

You're only sorry 'cause you got caught, and you're never happy 'cause you think you're not. And a story's no good without a thickening plot. So when the water finally settled, you stirred it up. You fucked it up.

I have no idea how he knows when I need him. We can go weeks without speaking. And then, when my blue moods threaten to turn black, he will show up and tell me my moods are azure, indigo, cerulean, cobalt, periwinkle. And suddenly, the blue will not seem so dark, more like the color of a noon-bright sky. He brings the sun.

I was prepared to miss you a good deal. So this letter is just really a sequel of pain. It is incredible how essential to me you have become.

"I'm not a genius. I'm just a tremendous bundle of experience."

"I realize you can't live your life saying ' well other people have it worse ', because at the end of the day you still hurt the same."

Hey, it would be fine if you want to come over at nine. We can lay on the floor and watch a movie that we've already seen. Or we can talk and touch with the radio on, we'll wait for awhile, 'til they play our song.

We’ve all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes, we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today’s possibility under tomorrow’s rug until we can’t anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves.

So many times I turned my back on the moment because I thought the moment was with you.

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds. It dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

When I met you I was just a kid. Hadn’t built up my defenses, so I gave my heart completely. Vaseline over the lenses. Memories don’t go away. I remember every day.

Well, Jesus Christ, I'm alone again
So what did You do those three days You were dead?
'Cuz this problem's gonna last
More than the weekend

Collect calls to home to tell them that I realize that everyone who lives will someday die and die alone.

I'm in one of those moods that nothing is really wrong in my life, but my brain keeps on insisting that there is. Or maybe it's my heart that's doing the insisting. I can't really tell. You know that feeling?

I don't care what consequence it brings. I have been a fool for lesser things. I want you so bad. I think you ought to know that I intend to hold you for the longest time.

It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever. I never knew I could hurt like this, and everyday life rolls on like this. I wish I could talk to you for awhile. I wish I could find a way to try not to cry, as time goes by. The hardest thing to do is say bye.

No one falls in love by choice. It’s by chance. No one stays in love by chance. It’s by work. And no one falls out of love by chance. It’s by choice.

And I'll forget the world that I knew, but I swear I won't forget you. If my voice could reach back through the past, I'd whisper in your ear "oh, darling I wish you were here."

Love to the tips of your fingers, and when you find that love, wherever you find it, whoever you choose - don’t run away from it. But you don’t have to chase after it either. You just be patient, and it’ll come to you.

I wish that my head was my own notebook. I wish every single one of my thoughts were written down. Okay, it doesn't have to be a notebook. It can be an air sick bag for all I care. I am this person inside my head I could only dream to be. She's so open, so alive, she's so thoughtful and she is brilliant. She dreams of things I cant imagine on seeing. She sees colors, not words or people. She sees rainbows of colors. She is life. She breathes flowers and exhales master pieces of art. She excels in education, music, and art. She is the person I can only be in my head. I'll keep her there. She's safe there. She hasn't been hurt, she hasn't seen pain. In my eyes, there's still hope for her. I bet her heart is full of love and compassion. The kind of compassion that's been torn from my eyes, my heart, and my finger tips. Her lips are untouched and so soft. I could only imagine what she is capable of. I'd probably hate her if she was real. I'd probably find some reason to hate her. And I'd probably tear her, from limb to limb. I'd make her cry, just to watch her mascara run. But, I bet even then, make up smeared, eyes red and puffy, I bet even then she's still beautiful.

"no matter how hard it gets, just keep going because you only fail when you give up."

A three word statement does not justify the importance that you have in my life.
Instead of saying 'I love you', I want you to know that no statement in the English
language can captivate the very essence of how much I truly treasure your existence.

if you could read my mind, i wonder what you'd think of yourself.

Everytime I see something beautiful, I wish you could see it with me, even if I fucking hate you.

I could write novels about pain. Not the kind of pain you get when you break your arm, but the kind that makes your broken heart go into your throat, so that it takes all of your energy and concentration to breathe. The kind of pain that makes you want to scream & sob at the same time. The kind of pain that makes you want to hurt everyone around you because you're suffering & they're not, because they can breathe without feeling guilty & hold a normal conversation without breaking down into fits of tears or rage.

I know it's a bit sudden okay, but yesterday was a great day. And I'm sitting on the bus, and I realize that none of my great days in my life matter without you. You're the one I want next to me when my dreams come true. You're the one I want next to me if they don't. As long as I have you, nothing else matters.

I wish you would just show up on my doorstep. Not with anything special, just you. And when I’d open the door, you’d smile. And while I’m trying to figure out what the hell you’re doing here, you’d tell me how hard the past months have been, how much you’ve thought about me, how much you regretted everything. And then you’d take me into your arms and ask me to forgive you, and I would without hesitation. Then you’d grab my face and kiss me the way you used to, and everything would be perfect again.
^perfect, isn't it?

When I sleep, I dream of you. And when I wake, I long to hold you in my arms. If anything, our time apart has only made me more certain that I want to spend my nights by your side, and my days with your heart.

I've been waiting for the longest time. I want you to come back. Maybe if the sun would shine, it'd bring my happy back in the dark. So tired of waking up and it's dark. So tired of being stuck on my own here.

Pearl: I'm only human, man.
Leland: It's funny how people only say that after they do something bad. I mean, you never hear someone say "I'm only human" after they rescue a kid from a burning building.

It’s completely impossible to find a guy who won't hurt you. So instead, go for the guy who will make the pain worthwhile.

You occupied my space. But because you were not in my future I saw...nothing. Isn't that sad? And stupid?

Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.

these are nights when it's hard to fall asleep. the only way to block my thoughts is the thought of popping down pills or being beaten onto ground. you want to tear every hair off your head, punch holes into every fucking wall, until you crush every bone in each of your hands, to the point where it's hard to breathe, screaming fuck you until the blood from your throat splatters on the wall. i don't think i'll let it go this time.

Your love's a gathered storm I chased across the sky. A moment in your arms became the reason why. And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness. The only one I need until my dying breath. And I would give everything just to feel your open arms. And I'm not sure I believe anything I feel.

I drove too far in the wrong direction, forgot a map and a compass, and today I wonder if I meant to forget to turn.

We almost had it right, but the puzzle pieces misaligned. You've been talking in your sleep, but you never mentioned me.

I trust the red sun setting, the leafless November trees. On Monday morning, I look forward fearlessly to Friday's eve. But humans are not as reliable as nature, as trees. I wonder if you'll come back, I only trust that you'll leave.

I never thought you could leave me, I figured I was the one.
But I understand your sadness, so I guess I should just hold my tongue.

I remember the days we spent together were not enough. It used to feel like dreaming, except we always woke up. Never thought not having you here now would hurt so much.

And when I asked you how you’d been I meant I missed you more than I’ve ever missed anything before.

"Listen to me: If we are truly meant to be, then we will find our way back to each other. It’s as simple as that."

Her haunting me. The way a song stays in your head. The way you think life should be. How anything holds your attention. How your past goes with you into everyday of your future.

"Sometimes when you sacrifice something precious,
you're not really losing it. You're just passing it on."
-The Five People You Meet in Heaven

"I know what it is to not feel like you're in the room until he looks at
you or touches your hand or even makes a joke at your expense, just
to let everyone know... you're with him. You're his."
-P.S. I Love You
Silly me, look what I did again.
I found what I want is what I cannot have.
I didn't mean to be so predictable.
But I blame it all on who made you irresistable.
And it isn't something I need till you tell me I can't.
Why wear my heart on my sleeve when it looks so good in your hand?

It's getting hard to breathe, hard to be here alone without you. Every part of me is crying out. Oh, you know I want you. But words are not enough to bring you home.

It was so right, and you might not see that right now, but I do. And if I have to wait until we're both 80 years old for you to see it, then I'll wait. I'm not going anywhere. This is it for me. You're it for me, and I can't pretend to feel any less than I do, I just can't.

I can't go places, I always see traces of the only thing in life I'll ever need. If I could do all the things I only dream that I could do, I'd still be the girl in love with you.

if you feel like dying you might want to sing.

I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know that just to be alive is a grand thing. --Agatha Christie

Knowledge cannot replace friendship. I'd rather be an idiot than lose you. - Patrick to Spongebob

And you keep whispering the same story to yourself. "I'll be unhappy now because that'll make me happy later. Because that's how a story works." So your happiness will always happen later, never now. Life isn't a story. Life is chaos.

I don’t know why, I’ve always been big on happy endings.
You see, to me, the most romantic, beautiful love stories ever were the ones where
two people meet, fall in love, and then fifty, sixty years later one of them dies
and then a few days after that the other one dies
because they just can’t bear to live without each other.

The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself. - Henry Miller

"Cameron has never been in love - at least, nobody's ever been in love with him. If things don't change for him, he's gonna marry the first girl he lays, & she's gonna treat him like crap because she will have given him what he has built up in his mind as the end-all, be-all of human existence. She won't respect him, 'cause you can't respect somebody who kisses your ass. It just doesn't work." -Ferris Bueller's Day Off

I wait up for you, you don’t wake up for me. Would you like the company, or are you sick of me? When your love lets you go, you only want love more. Even when love wasn't what you were looking for. Speak slow, tell me, love, where do we go? Break down and plead your case, I don't know what to say. I leave my heart all this pain and now I'm at it all again.

And that’s the thing about people who mean everything they say. They think everyone else does too.

Should we try this before we give up and move on, and pretend to restore what we have and hold on?

She's trapped inside her room with reruns on the screen, old books and movies. But she can't stop thinking, I want to be innocent again. She stands a stranger in her skin.

They're all part of the list, things that I miss. Things like your funny little laugh, the way you smile, or the way we kiss.
I’ve never understood the reasoning for someone to "move on" from a relationship. It’s not like you are really going to "move on", you are just trying to tell your heart to stop thinking about that person every second of every minute of everyday until it finally becomes a routine and you don’t notice it anymore. That is, until you see that person again, with someone who isn’t you, and then you have to remind yourself again.

i don't want to waste another
moment of my life without you in it.
-Garden State

Why did you mess with forever?
You asked to kiss me once goodbye
But you already did
On somebody else's lips
Tell the tiny chemicals
The ones you hold responsible
They lost me, you lost me.

There's a melody in my head and I haven't stopped humming it since I saw your face.
There's a feeling I can't forget, it started with you kissing me in that way, and there's no end in sight.

There's nothing like a bit of competition to make you want someone more than you probably should.

Well then, how can you be certain to find them? And if you do find them, are they really the one for you or do you only think they are? And what happens if the person you're supposed to be with never appears, or, or he does, but you're too distracted to notice?
-Ever After

I'm reminiscing about good times and rewinding all these songs. It feels like just yesterday you were lying in my arms. Listen to my words, I'm just trying to be strong. But I have to face the truth and realize that you're gone.

You've changed so much. I guess that's what happens. I wish you knew how much you've changed me. I wonder if I've changed you, if your life is different because of me.. because mine's different. My God, you taught me so much, and now we don't even talk to each other. I guess that's what happens.

"I want to rob lumber mills and hospitals with you,
and just bewilder the hell out of people the way love should."

Every day the opportunity exists to change your life. But most days, the idea of having to change the big things in life just seems like too much work. Should I lie on the couch & watch a movie, or should I confront my personal demons? You get the point. -Girls' Poker Night by Jill A. Davis

I like songs about drifters, books about the same. They've always seemed to make me feel a little less insane.

Later on, when I tried to imagine how I might have ruined things, that would occur to me - that I'd so rarely resisted, that I hadn't made it hard enough for him. Maybe it was like gathering your strength and hurling your body against a door you believe to be locked, and then the door opens easily - it wasn't locked at all - and you're standing looking into the room, trying to remember what it was you thought you wanted.

wouldn't it be ironic if at this very moment
you were thinking of me just like
i'm thinking of you?

"When your heart gets broken, you sort of see the cracks in everything." - Felicity

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside. But not one of those that you can easily hide. Don't have much money, boy if I did, I'd buy a big house where we both could live. If I was a sculptor, but then again, no. Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show. Oh, I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do. My gift is my song & this one's for you.

It's times like these when all I really want to do is put on your favorite t-shirt, curl up in a ball and sleep to dry these tears. Never in my life did I think that I would need someone so much.

Whatever poison's in this bottle will leave me broken sore and stiff.
But it's the genie at the bottom who I'm sucking at. He owes me one last wish.
So here's a present to let you know I still exist.
I hope the next girl that you kiss has something terribly contagious on her lips.

By some mischief of fate, we might only fall in love once. You know, that one great love old folks refer to. Many lovers may get into our lives, but there is only one person with that one smile, one kiss, one hug and one moment, that our hearts will never replace. That person, usually but sadly, is the one that got away. That’s why, after all the chips are down, we know, just know, that we’ll never fall in love that way again.

Taking steps back through the words I should've said to you; they all got lost, you went away. Well I feel sick, and you just don't care anymore.

Yeah, we've had our ups and downs.. but we've always worked them out. Babe, am I ever glad we've got this far now. Still I'm lying here tonight, wishing I was by your side. Cause when I'm not there enough, nothing feels right. So I'm coming back to show you that I'll love you the rest of my life.

I love you more than songs can say
But i can't keep running after yesterday.

I am too busy to have friends. A lover would just complicate my plans. So I will never look for love again. I'm taking matters into my own hands. I think I could last at least a week without someone to hold me.

I guess when you’re young, you just believe there will be many people with whom you’ll connect with. Later in life, you realize it only happens a few times.

I wake up and think dreams are real. I sleep so I don't have to feel the truth, that you can't ever be the one person that won't ever forget me. Let me sleep some more.

See, that's the thing about trying to have your cake and eating it too. If you make the slightest mistake, you usually wind up getting neither.

"Blurring lines between love and sin can't tell you where you stop and where I begin. My body sending questions to answers you can't give. If you throw me a line, I'll only drag you in."

At the end of the day I want to be able to fall asleep knowing that our lives intertwined in a way only we can understand.

I couldn't convince you that the blue you see is the same blue that I see.
But maybe that's how lovers know they're meant to love; they see the same blue.

As soon as you start to have romantic feelings for someone, you’re fucked. You and this person are going to hurt one another. Even if you are together for the rest of your life, you’re going to feel indescribable pain.When you’re in, no matter how deep, you’re in.

Sometimes it feels like the world's on my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me.
'Cause sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then he comes back to me.

And I don't understand why I sleep all day, and I start to complain that there's no rain. And all I can do is read a book to stay awake, and it rips my life away, but it's a great escape.

I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
there I just said it
I'm scared you'll forget about me.

watching you walk out of my life does not make me bitter or cynical about love, but rather makes me realize that if i wanted so much to be with the wrong person, how beautiful it will be when the right one comes along.

Saying goodbyes are always hard. You hug a little tighter, smell a little deeper, attempt to commit the feel of the person to your memory. You want time to stop, but it can’t and you know it can’t. You know that you have to go on. So you cling on for a moment, and press your lips to their cheek and murmur, I’ll see you when I see you.

If you're calling about my heart, it's still yours. I should have listened to it a little more. Then it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where I belong.

When your addictions no longer hide the truth from you. When your whole life breaks down. That's the moment when you have to somehow choose what your life is going to be about.

I thought I knew you. But I guess it's easier to see what we want than to look for the truth.

You turn on the radio and fall in love with the shape of someone's voice box.
And then you hear the size of their heart. The width of their pain.
And the length of their dreams.

I need someone who can deal with me. I need a guy who will make me see things from a different point of view. I need a guy who will make me talk about the things that scare me. I need a guy who will make me open up to him, a guy who won't give up on me.

Fate. It's what people invent to explain what they can't understand. If you think someone is the one, you tell yourself it was meant to happen. And if it breaks your heart, you tell yourself it wasn't meant to be. I've spent ten years trying to find a man who knows where I am in a room the moment he steps inside, without having to look. But that hasn't happened. I can admit the truth to myself - that I've got lousy luck at finding love - or I can tell myself that I haven't crossed paths with my soul mate yet. It's always easier to be a victim than a failure.

Nothing is certain anymore. I don't know what in the world is the right thing to do, and so I'm stuck here in a place I don't want to be. I don't want to sit back and watch you be fine without me. I don't want to cry and carry on like I have been doing for the past weeks. I just want not to want you anymore. I want to, hell I need to, just move on.

"if you're planning to let me go today.
make sure you'll never come back tomorrow."

Missing someone gets easier everyday because even though you are one day further from the last time you saw them, you are one day closer to the next time you will.

i wish people could achieve what they think would bring them happiness in order for them to realize that's not what happiness really is. -alanis morisette

In the short time we spent together, we had what most people can only dream about, and I’m counting the days until I can see you again. Never forget how much I love you.

Woke up and wished that I was dead. With an aching in my head, I lay motionless in bed. I thought of you and where you'd gone, and let the world spin madly on.

I want to study the geography of your body. I want to start a revolution with you.
I want to write secret notes on your back as you sleep next to me. But what I really
want is to tell you that, regardless of everything, I love you. Even if you never
love me back, I love you. I hope that when you're laying in bed after a night spent
in some distant state or country watching terrible TV that you don't feel alone. I love you.

You wrapped your arms around me, pressing your body against mine. And in that moment of perfection, I knew we were meant to be. I never wanted you to let go of me.

And I've cried and you would think I would be better for it, but the sadness just sleeps and it stays in your spine for the rest of your life. I've learned and you'd think I'd be something more now but it just goes to show it is not what you know, it's what you're thinking at the time.

Everything is different now. Why are you so distant now? Everything has changed. Yeah, nothing is the same, Since the day you went away, nothing feels at all okay with me.

Sentimental music has this great way of taking you back. Somewhere at the same time it takes you forward, so you feel nostalgic and hopeful all at the same time.

Never knew I could feel like this, like I've never seen the sky before. Want to vanish inside your kiss. Every day I love you more and more. Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing? Telling me to give you everything. Seasons may change, winter to spring. But I love you until the end of time. Come what may, come what may. I will love you until my dying day.

You've got too much to wear on your sleeves and it has too much to do with me.

One day we'll look back on this, laugh nervously, and quickly change the subject.

"I was waiting for the longest time," she said, "I thought you forgot." "It's hard to forget," I said, "when there is such an empty space when you are gone."

If you're on your way, I'm not gonna write you to stay. If all you have is leaving, I'm gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today.

It's always times like these when I think of you, and wonder if you're ever thinking of me. Cause everything's so wrong, and I don't belong living in your precious memory.

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today. --Dale Carnegie

Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens, and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever.

I had always been in love with him. I counted the lashes of each closed eye. He had been my almost, my might have been, and I did not want to leave him. -Alice Sebold

A year. A thousand kisses, And now a thousand one, a thousand two. There are so many other places we could have ended up, but I have to believe none of them would have felt this right. "All I want is you" is not entirely true. I want so much more, and with you I think I can get it.

And without him, I didn't feel the simplicities in the world anymore. The sky was just the sky, and I was just a girl. And without him, neither seemed quite as exquisite and beautiful.

And suddenly I felt completely strange, like the distance between us was much greater than what I could see from where I was standing. Like that line, always so clear to me, had somehow shifted, or had never even been where I’d thought it was at all.

I miss the simplicity of just being without trying, while everyone else was striving to be someone. I miss being accepted for who I am with you. I miss how it was natural to hold your hand. How we could feel each other smiling between kisses. How even when I asked for space, you knew enough to never leave. Now that you're gone, I seem to have more space than I know what to do with.
