    Summary

    A girl wants to hear that your body 
    and your wrecked soul ache 
    in need of her in the dark of the night, 
    when your subconscious conjures up her face 
    in the veiled realm between sleep and waking
    losing itself in the desperate desire
    to become one with her.

    A reflection in free verse on everything Jane never said out loud until Blue Bird—and everything Lisbon deserved to hear.

    Summary

    “Lisbon,” Jane tries, affecting a wobbly smile, a little drunk on the sight of her despite how angry she looks. “It’s good to-”

    “Why are you here, Jane?” She interrupts, folding her arms over her chest. It’s not her usual upset posture, where she juts out her chin and raises an eyebrow, making herself bigger. Instead, it looks like she’s holding herself together, and he wants suddenly to go to the ocean and drown himself.

    A thousand possible answers pass through his mind at once, all of them true, but none convincing enough. Because I need you. Because I love you. Because I wanted to see you. Because you’re the only light in the darkness, and I’m the moth. Because you’re mine. To apologize. To make it up to you. But when he opens his mouth, what comes out is: “Because you’re here, Lisbon.”

    Summary

    He’s truly a lost cause. Completely hopeless.

    If he hadn’t been before, then nearly dying certainly would’ve done it.

    Even the fugue version of himself had been enamored with her from the moment he opened his eyes and saw her hovering by his bedside. When he’d been standing inside his house in Malibu, when all the realization and rush of feelings had hit him at once, the first discernible thoughts he could muster were of her.
