Okay

Okay

My thoughts are stars
I cannot fathom into constellations.
And I've decided a while ago
Not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence.
 
All efforts to save me from you will fail.
I know love is just a shout into the void,
And that oblivion is inevitable…
But you realize that trying to keep your distance from me
Will not lessen my affection for you.
I fell in love with the way you fell asleep;
Slowly, then all at once.
 
Maybe we’re all doomed
And there will come a day when all our hard labor has been returned to dust,
And the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have…
And all this will end in oblivion.
That’s the thing about pain-
It demands to be felt.
 
The world is not a wish-granting factory, and
There is no shortage of fault amid our stars.
But it is nature for stars to cross,
And I haven’t gotten used to you just yet,
Maybe “okay” will be our “always”
Okay?
Okay.

(One of the best quotes from the movie "The Fault In Our Stars")
(Thought I'd share this one)
