Tender Subjects

 I asked, "How can anyone who really knows me ever love me?" only to discover that it was the only way anyone ever would.


"It's not easy -- loving someone through the chinks in their armor -- especially when the love they return is so often trapped inside."


"To truly know someone is to know the thing they never speak of -- and to recognize the silences that speak of it."
