“Give me
a moon-blanket night
to keep me warm

a long-gone smile
to comfort me

a pair of rain-blue eyes
to haunt me

a simple soul
...to love me.”
― Sanober Khan, Turquoise Silence

“There's a lot for you to live for. Good things are definitely in your future, Leonard. I'm sure of it. You have no idea how many interesting people you'll meet after high school's over. Your life partner, your best friend, the most wonderful person you'll ever know is sitting in some high school right now waiting to graduate and walk into your life - maybe even feeling all the same things you are, maybe even wondering about you, hoping that you're strong enough to make it to the future where you'll meet.”
― Matthew Quick, Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock

“We have an unknown distance yet to run, an unknown river to explore.”

“You're different. And I'm different too. Different is good. But different is hard. Believe me, I know.”
