"Change is slow, painful. The rewriting of your very emotions, your very thoughts and perceptions. It's hard, and you will feel like giving in. You will, my God, you will. But that's what weeds out the weak, Hilary. The process of change. Because no matter how slow and painful it is, it's something beautiful."


I feel small, often, and many
Beneath the greatness of the blue sky high above our insignificant little heads
Amidst the brilliance of thousands of stars,
Of asteroids, planets, galaxies, universes
Of people; old, young, sick, and bright
Of countries, seas, continents

And in all that space of being small, I met you.

I feel large, sometimes, and cherished
Between your arms that are warm and safe around my fragile soul
In the way you look at me
Of hurt, broken, bruised
Of this; kindness, care, and strength
Of you, me, and whatever we can grow

And in all that time of being yours, I fell in love.
