“Reading your note, at our table, in my voice,
I heard you were ready to accept my love,
Which, of course, changes everything.”
― Misha Collins, Some Things I Still Can't Tell You: Poems

“When you were swimming in the lake of life,
You thrashed and kicked up your head,
Your arms slapped the surface waves and water foam.
But there’s a calm and glassy stillness In the quiet of your death,
And I can see far down
To the depths of you
That I never knew to love.”
― Misha Collins, Some Things I Still Can't Tell You: Poems

“I'm learning to give myself permission to be happy. Guilt was a large part of my life. It fueled a lot of my decisions. But I've paid my dues, I did what my mother asked of me. Now I just want to be free to make the choices I want to make without fear.”
― Zoey Draven, Captive of the Horde King

“I’m not brave all the time. No one is. We’ve all been disappointed; we’ve all had our hearts broken, and we’re all just doing our best. Make sure you have people who love you, the real you, not the Instagram you. If you can’t be brave, pretend to be brave, and if you can’t do that yet, know that you aren’t alone. Everyone you see is struggling. Nobody has it all figured out.”
― Jennifer Weiner, Big Summer
