More From David Levithan

Strip back the beliefs pasted on by governesses, schools, and states, you find indelible truths at one's core. rome'll decline and fall again, cortés'll lay tenochtitlán to waste again, and later, ewing will sail again, adrian'll be blown to pieces again, you and i'll sleep under the corsican stars again, i'll come to bruges again, fall in and out of love with eva again, you'll read this letter again, the sun'll grow cold again. nietzsche's gramophone record. when it ends, the old one plays it again, for an eternity of eternities.

I will love you like god, because of god, mighted by the power of god. i will stop expecting your love, demanding your love, trading for your love, gaming for your love. i will simply love. i am giving myself to you, and tomorrow i will do it again. i suppose the clock itself will wear thin its time before i am ended at this altar of dying and dying again. god risked himself on me. i will risk myself on you. and together, we will learn to love, and perhaps then, and only then, understand this gravity that drew him, unto us.
Love You Giving Risk
When i look back on my childhood i wonder how i survived at all. it was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable irish catholic childhood.

Love is real, real is love, love is feeling, feeling love, love is wanting to be loved. love is touch, touch is love, love is reaching, reaching love, love is asking to be loved. love is you, you and me, love is knowing, we can be. love is free, free is love, love is living, living love, love is needing to be loved.
Love Real Knowing
Here is the great secret of success. work with all your might; but trust not in the least in your work. pray with all your might for the blessing of god; but work, at the same time, with all diligence, with all patience, with all perseverance. pray then, and work. work and pray. and still again pray, and then work. and so on all the days of your life. the result will surely be, abundant blessing. whether you see much fruit or little fruit, such kind of service will be blessed.
Perseverance Blessed Blessing
Listen, are we helpless? are we doomed to do it again and again and again? have we no choice but to play the phoenix in an unending sequence of rise and fall? assyria, babylon, egypt, greece, carthage, rome, the empires of charlemagne and the turk: ground to dust and plowed with salt. spain, france, britain, america—burned into the oblivion of the centuries. and again and again and again. are we doomed to it, lord, chained to the pendulum of our own mad clockwork, helpless to halt its swing? this time, it will swing us clean to oblivion.
