Favorite Quote:
“The way sadness works is one of the strange riddles of the world. If you are stricken with a great sadness, you may feel as if you have been set aflame, not only because of the enormous pain but also because your sadness may spread over your life, like smoke from an enormous fire.¨<br /> – Lemony Snicket


When can we see each other?
We´re thousands of miles apart.
Wonder how my days would be if your notifications never popped up.
I wait for your response.
You answer with a paragraph.
We talk about our favorite books and films.
We talk about the world.
I put my phone down so I can think.
Long-distance relationships never work.
They probably don´t even like me.
We´re just friends, right?
The sound of my ringer brings me joy when I see that it is you.
You tell me you have something to say.
You say that it´s important.
You tell me you asked your crush out, and they said yes.
I pretend I´m happy for you.
I wish we were more than internet friends.
