expect something.

"if you never expect anything, you'll never be disappointed.
it's a hard pill to swallow, but that mindset keeps me alive. I don't envy those in love. When you love someone you make them the God of your idolatry and create a version of them in your mind that isn't real. You expect something." Rafe muttered before inhaling his cigarette while looking out at the orange of the sky by the sea.

"i feel sorry for those who have never found love. for what other feeling would there ever be a gaping whole in me which i cannot find any other way to fill because of a boy i expected too much from" I saw tears fall onto the pages of my diary, sealing my words into the pages.
