love never fails.

My all-time favorite passage.

Nicholas asked me about love today.
He said he was the kind of person who was always rational about love.
That if the girl didn't agree with him, they can just split up and move separate ways.
Wow that was amazing to me.
I said to him, "You know when you love someone, you just love them.  It sucks.  You tend to love the most the one guy who deserves it least.  He could have the worst traits you never imagined in someone and yet, he has all the worst mix and you love him anyway.  I wish I could be like you, rational. Turning feelings on and off. I could never do that. I just sit here loving one person I've loved for a long time. Hoping I'll get tired of it. Or die."
He laughed and looked at me, "Wow, what happened to you?"
I fell in love and never fell out of it.
And it's sad and lonely because eventhough I can't have him, I can't imagine being with anybody else.
(I know this because I've tried. And I've quit trying now because it doesn't work out.)
