"I would kill for you. I would die for you" would you take a break for me? Would you sit down and rest? For a day, a week, a year? Would you let others take care of your needs for me? Would you let yourself be held for me? By me?

How many writers does it take to change a lightbulb?

None. They all stare at their dozens of partially-changed lightbulbs and daydream about changing lightbulbs instead of actually changing the lightbulb, scroll through Tumblr and look at memes about changing lightbulbs instead of actually changing the lightbulb, and lie awake at 3 AM staring at the ceiling hoping that the lightbulb will magically change itself instead of actually changing the lightbulb.
