"She just wants to have a crush on him, private and harmless. Not like love,
which requires so much. Crawling through the dark over ex-wives and lovers,
picking out the shards of his truth. Try to love that. A crush is just
feeling and fantasy, all buildup, no letdown. A rush toward accepting arms
that aren't meant to hold her. No down payment and no forms to fill out.
When she's finished, she doesn't even say good-bye; she just waves him off."


-"Crush" by Beverly Rollwagen from She Just Wants
