Ted Michael says she wants to be friends…

Posted on April 8, 2015 by Attempted Love

“She wants to be friends. But what does that mean? Were we ever really friends? Friends don’t stay up talking on the phone Every Single Night about Stupid Little Things and Most Important Things until it’s light outside. Friends don’t tell each other their most secret secrets. Friends don’t hook up. Friends don’t ache for each other. They just don’t.”

– Ted Michael, Crash Test Love

Craig Ferguson says nothing lasts forever…

Posted on April 8, 2015 by Attempted Love

“The Universe is very, very big.
It also loves a paradox. For example, it has some extremely strict rules.
Rule number one: Nothing lasts forever.
Not you or your family or your house or your planet or the sun. It is an absolute rule. Therefore when someone says that their love will never die, it means that their love is not real, for everything that is real dies.

Rule number two: Everything lasts forever.”

– Craig Ferguson, Between the Bridge and the River

Ebb

I know what my heart is like
Since your love died:
It is like a hollow ledge
Holding a little pool
Left there by the tide,
A little tepid pool,
Drying inward from the edge.

– Edna St. Vincent Millay, Second April
