I said, “Do you love me?”
“I don’t even allow myself to think in those terms…But since you’re asking, I will say that I have feelings for you that seem to own me.  I’m not sure if it’s love, but it’s something big and I can’t shake it.”
I said, “I feel the same way.”

felt a grin fighting to break across my face. I glanced at Angie. The corners of her mouth twitched too.

“Don’t look at me,” she said.

“Why not?”

“I’m telling you—” She lost the battle and closed her eyes as the smile broke across her cheeks.

Mine followed about a half second later.

“I don’t know why I’m smiling.” Angie said.

“Me, either.”

“Prick.”

“Bitch.”

She laughed and turned on her chair, drink in hand. “Miss me?”

Like you can’t imagine. “Not a bit,” I said.

this is why you should never, ever get your hopes up. this is why you should see the glass as half empty. so when the whole thing spills, you aren’t as devastated…

The harder they come
The harder they fall
Baby, maybe I would rather not go there at all

Maybe love is not for me
Maybe lovers dream things that I don’t dream
Maybe oh, maybe

“Now it’s a character issue. If you were to say no to me now, then it’s like - then there’s something wrong with me, and this whole haunting thing continues, only much, much worse. Because now what it means is, I’m not fit to attract a quality person like yourself.” chuck hogan - prince of thieves  p.156

“Because since you left I have these dreams that you’re sleeping beside me. And I wake up and I can still smell you, and I’m still half dreaming, but I don’t know it, so I reach for you. I reach across to your pillow, and you’re not there. And I gotta lie there at five in the morning, with the birds waking up outside and you not there and your smell just fading away. It fades and there’s —” I cleared my throat. “There’s nothing but me left there. And white sheets. White sheets and those fucking birds and it hurts, and all I can do is close my eyes and lie there and wish I didn’t feel like dying.” prayers for rain - dennis lehane. pg 295.

liar, liar, you’re such a great big liar, with the tallest tales that i have ever heard.
fire, fire, you set my soul on fire, laughing in the corner as it burns
right between the ribs, it’s sinkin’ in

oh, oh the sirens sang so sweet and watched the sailors going down
oh, oh you talked to me in siren song. yeah, anyone would drown, anyone would drown

sick and tired of this mad desire, fluttering inside me like a hawk
wire, wire, got my hands on wires, will heaven help you when i get them off?
right between the ribs, you’ll feel it then
