Years of love, followed by heartache. Those are the years that define me. Those are the years that know– love’s eternity is you. ↗

I had my own bed. I slept in it alone, except for those times when we needed—not sex—but sex was how we got there. ↗

They had each other and there was a love between them that would withstand anything. Alina and I had always intuited, with no small wry pique, that, although our parents adored us and would do anything for us, they loved each other more. As far as I was concerned, that was the way it should be. Kids grow up, move on and find a love of their own. The empty nest shouldn't leave parents grieving. It should leave them ready and excited to get on with living their own adventure, which would, of course, include many visits to children and grandchildren. ↗

I am but a firefly caught in his jar and when he looks at me, I can’t help but glow. ↗

I was completely and irrevocably in lust; which tends to make a person impassive to others’ pain. Love makes us compassionate. Lust makes us deaf to all but the lover. ↗

You can’t keep messing me around like this. It’s been going on too long. I can’t take it anymore. I get sick every time you come around. Then I get sick when you leave. You’re like a disease to me. ↗

Now it was just the two of us, Max and me. And about a thousand other people around us. ↗
