I scream for everything that has gone wrong. I scream for everything broken in our lives.

Absolute power is absolute power, no matter what it's called.

I always knew, on some level, that I wouldn't live long. It's simply not written in my stars.

Be true to yourself. But that's something everyone says and no one means. No one wants you to be yourself. They want you to be the version of yourself that they like.

It hurts every day, the absence of someone who was once there.

Now, as we stand three feet apart and stare at each other, I feel the full distance that comes with spending so much time apart, a moment filled with the electricity of a first meeting and the uncertainty of strangers.

We can heal. Perhaps we can return to that same place we once stood, when we were both young and innocent.
