“Addiction is tricky. For example: a man who quit smoking for 11 years spent 15 seconds in an elevator with a man smoking a cigarette. He gave in.
What I’m trying to say is I think I love you again.” —Unknown

I want you to be here. I want to see you and show you what my life looks like when I'm alone. I want to be invisible with you and take you to all the places, these people who have made me.
The idea of telling people about the things I like scares me. But with you I almost feel a need to do it.
I want to be together with you, sharing nothing but time. And I want to walk with you, talk with you, share stories of the stars. I want to be close to you - so close I can feel that you're there every time that I need it.
I'm so afraid that you will fade and dissapear. I'm so afraid of wanting this, of loving you.

“Y si vivieras conmigo, te dejaría cartas debajo de la almohada. Se que no te gusta la soledad y que también te gusta leer. Eso te ayudará con ambas cosas.”
