I will love you when the sun explodes into golden confetti and the moon dissolves like mercury into the blue. I will love you when the birds no longer sing and the coldest winds blow. I will love you when the sea is drained and no harvest comes in. I will love you even if I knock on the door and no one answers. I will love you regardless of whether we dance in the moonlight or I am alone crying in the moonlight. I will love you even if I don’t know where you’re leading me. I will love you, no matter what.

"There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense."

— Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“There is an ache in my heart for the imagined beauty of a life I haven’t had, from which I had been locked out, and it never goes away.”
