“once asked my friend what was the difference between Los Angeles and New York City. He told me that New York is a candle, tall and thin and burning strongly. L.A. is a candle that burned too quick, wax spreading out and pouring over the land until it’s a massive puddle and no one knows where the wick is anymore.”

“Her eyes have lost their vacuity revealing unfathomable depth.”

“It is a hard, hard thing being shown exactly how feeble you are. Your mind driven to its knees, illuminating the true depths of your weakness. Mentally and emotionally. Especially when you spent the majority of your youth believing that you carried within you a fire, a courage that set you apart.  Maybe everyone thinks that. Or maybe I was just better at fooling myself.  Gods, I thought I was stronger than this.”
