Please may this not be a game. Please may this not be a game. Because if itโs a game, I know Iโm going to lose.
David LevithanI want to take back the secrets I told you so I can decide now whether to tell them to you again. I want to take back the piece of me that lies in you, to see if I truly miss it. I want to take back at least half the โI love youโs, because it feels safer that way.
David LevithanIt's as if when you love someone, they become your reason. And maybe I've gotten it backward, maybe it's just because I need a reason that I find myself falling in love with her. But I don't think that's it. I think I would have continued along, oblivious, if I hadn't happened to meet her.
