You're the nose on my bullet, the trigger on my gun. You're the sandbank in the ocean, oxygen in my blood. You're the fastest of the fish, you're the prickliest pear, you're a chameleon in the night, you're the sahara's sun glare. You're my mind's rest, you're the strings on my guitar, you're the wax in my moustache, the keys to my car.
You're the magical mermaid's hollowed illusion. You cool them, fool them, and they hope so much, and you let them down, and you watch from your rock, and your heart beats fast as you watch theirs stop.
I will keep on loving, cause I believe in love. I don't mind dying, if you follow me up.
Your victory's your defeat, your head above your heart. Only the brave surrender. Death cannot tear us apart.
Well my smile is wider than your's when we meet. And the winter is colder for me underneath. And I know that you glow from the inside out. You can keep it for yourself, and I'll go without.
Well you're the Oscar Wilde short stories in my bookcase, you're positively 4th street isolated in my itunes. You’re the word in the dictionary that I can't spell, can't describe, can't put in a sentence but use all the time.
Well, I wish we were animals free of loves games. I wish we were snails with really big shells. I wish I was a lion, I'd be king of the wild. I'd command all the beasts to carry you when you're tired.
I'm the elephant in the circus. Oh, you're my trainer. You'd never let me go, but if you did I would stay here. In love there is freedom, but it must be returned. There must be sacrifice, love must be learnt.
A donkey, a mule, a lifetime of work. In death he rests his head from his reins, no burden to bare, but work left him lame. And the lion on the mountain chased from his pride, his lioness stolen, his rival survives. The sound of his cubs in death are dim. He knows his world well, no pain can defeat him.
Wild horses in the wilderness, will know no journey home. Well my love is locked in chains, the lion walks alone. Nature is cruel, but he knows it's his home.
He to his demons, and you to your own. Please let me stand by you, and we'll conquer them all. We will conquer them all.

"I would rather be a superb meteor, 
every atom of me in magnificent glow, 
than a sleepy and permanent planet..."

too-big world
"A pain stabbed my heart as it did every time I saw a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too-big world”

Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday.
Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Be patient wild eyes. 
Nature means what she does. 
‘I love you’ means that I accept you for the person that you are, and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I will love you and stand by you even through the worst of times. It means loving you even when you’re in a bad mood, or too tired to do the things I want to do. It means loving you when you’re down, not just when you’re fun to be with. ‘I love you’ means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them, asking in return that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have and that I love you enough not to let go. It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting and needing you constantly, and hoping you feel the same way for me.
-Jonathan Safran Foer
