"Life gets better."

"That's easy for you to say."

"You're just in a bad spot."

"No, my entire life is in a bad spot. Not just a little section of it. It's not going to get better."

"Stop thinking so negatively."

"What is there to think positively about?"

"Your future."

"I don't have one. I don't want one."

"So what is there to look forward to?"

"Nothing."

"Then why are you sitting in front of me today in this office, instead of lying six-feet under the grave?"

"I don't know. Him, maybe. I keep hoping."

"Hoping?"

"Yes."

"Hoping what?"

"That I won't just be a ghost of the past. I want him to love me the way I loved - the way I love - him. But I love people who will never love me back, and I have dreams that will never come true."

"Have a little hope."

"Hope is overrated."
