Maybe that’s what we look for in the people we love, the spark of unhappiness we think we know how to extinguish.Tom Perrotta, Election (via nbarranco)
…I held
Back about love
All those years:
Talking about death
Insistently, even
As I was alive;
Talking about loss
As if all was loss,
As if the world
Did not return
Each morning.
She hadn’t been raised to believe in much of anything, except the foolishness of belief itself.Tom Perrotta
The LeftoversI probably should have known better
when I named my narrative hero after you
and you named you page 7 refrigerator after me.
I could sing James Vincent McMorrow to you til i’m blue in the face, but you’ll never understand.
