Scar Tissue

I was sitting there feeling really awkward about talking to no one. But then I said, “Yo, Slim,” which was the way I’d always greet Hillel. And it was like this wall came down in a second. I started weeping like I’d never wept before. From that point on, I was a waterfall of blabbering and blubbering and crying and coughing. I had this talk with Hillel and told him how much I loved him and how much I missed him. And then I made him the promise. “I’m clean. I’m in this rehab. I promise you I’m not going to put a needle in my arm again. I’m going to stay clean.” I cried all the way out of that cemetery.

Tear

Haya and I looked at each other and said, "You know, this really isn't going to work. Then we lay there in bed, holding each other tight and crying for hours.

Can't Stop

I'm going to do this. I'm gonna sleep with this girl, andI'm going to regret it forever, but I can't stop myself.
