"Everything I can't be is everything you should be, and that's why I need you here."

She fell in, fell out, and it doesn’t matter anymore, because the person you had to catch you at the bottom is no longer there. He is off doing other stuff, and their promise becomes a kind of lie, and lying is the worst, isn’t it? But how he acts, and what he says, and what he does, and who he is, they don’t line up anymore. The lie is in that not lining up, the lie is in not being what she needs but pretending that he is.
