“That it’s possible. You just have to fight. It will not be easy. But you can manage. Because life is giving you as much pain as you are capable [of living] with. And on the end of that path, the goal will be reachable. You will have suffered to do [it], but it doesn’t matter.”

“I acted like a friend, just so I can be near you. I let you talk about her. I listened with both ears, picked up every detail. Gave you helpful little tips to get the golden girl.

You get to explore new mountains and come home to a safe bed. I sang the songs of all the unrequited love of a friend. I let it hurt me. I let it consume me. Pain it seems is comforting.”
