"And so being young
and dipped in folly,
I fell in love
with melancholy."

"I only have have one question, scraping the inside of me. Answer it, and I will stumble back into her shadow, shut my mouth, never ask again. I’ve tried to ignore it, but it won’t go away. It haunts my dreams, chases me through every single day, and I don’t have the strength to turn around, face it down. So please tell me and I swear I’ll never ask again. It’s in your power to make it go away, and all you have to do is tell me why you love her more."
