If this were a simpler matter, I'd have eliminated everyone else by now. I know how I feel about you. Maybe it's impulsive of me to think I could be so sure, but I'm certain I would be happy with you.

Sometimes I feel like we're a knot, too tangled to be taken apart.

True love is usually the most inconvenient kind.

Maxon, this is my gift to you. I promise I will make every effort to see these girls through your eyes. Not the eyes of a queen, or the eyes of your mother, but yours. Even if the girl you choose is of a very low caste, even if others think she has no value, I will always listen to your reasons for wanting her. And I will do my best to support your choice.

Despite the knowledge that her affections were unattainable, I couldn't help but be drawn to try.

And I know it's over, but it's the same way I felt when you broke up with me.

Love is beautiful fear
