“I thought it might be a great thing to be the air.I could be something and nothing at the same time.I could be necessary and also invisible.Everyone would need me and no one would be able to see me.”-Benjamin Alire Sáenz


There are a million versions of you  

There is you, laughing in a sun kissed field while picking flowers

There is you,crying into my shoulder the night that tragedy made us feel numb

There is you,clinging onto my arms because you were afraid of what the future held

My mind is flooded with memories of every version of you that I’ve encountered

Every version is a piece of the complex person that you are

I hope to know you long enough

I hope to love you long enough

I hope I’m in your life long enough so I can meet every version there is of you,

All one million of them

And I know

That each one will be more beautiful than the last
