you still do love her & not me, not ever. You're just lonely and looking for someone to share it with. It hurts to realize that I'm not lonely like you, I still have my family with me, my friends are all over me and I have myself to know that I am loved and thought of by people who truly loves me no matter how strange I can become but still makes you my top of the list person I long to be with. It's crazy feeling to miss your touch, your smell, your breath, your body, your power over me while I keep myself all ready for you and not dare others who longs for what I long from you to touch me! ↗

I didn’t look at Thanet. I couldn’t because he would see the hurt on my face. “He loves you,” Thanet said. “He’s hurting and it’s not just the Quinn thing. It’s being away from you and wondering if you’re hurting, too. Or if you’re having too much fun to hurt. What he really needed was to laugh, though. So we laughed…until he cried.” That undid me. I looked at Thanet with so many questions on my lips. ↗

I love when I reach Marcus on the phone and as he says hello, I can hear the music he's listening to in the background. That music is the sound of him without me. How he surrounds himself when I'm not there, which is almost all the time. ↗

listen, pal. I came here because I knew how worried you must be. But if you're going to talk to me like that, I'll fuck off home." The word racist brightened a little: the Anglo- Saxon was striking back against the Roman invader. ↗

#home

Few things would gratify me as much as a rediscovered respect for things belonging to others. Not abusing the property of others (or that of the community) is one of the ways in which we respect others. It is an essential part of being considerate guests, no matter where we are: in an airplane, in a friend's home, in a movie theater, in a doctor's office, in a public library, or in a public square. ↗
