[fic-quotes]

When you're a kid, life feels like a carousel ride. And not just any carousel ride you’d find stashed in the mall, but the kind of carousel you see at the fair or an amusement park with their rainbow colored horses and carriages with the music playing softly in your ear and the wind blowing through your hair as they take you higher and higher into the sky until you believe you can fly. It isn't until you become an adult and revisit your carousel that you realize it's nothing but painted over rusted metal with a skipping soundtrack and squeaking gears.

cupofdaisies, Little White Submarines.

[fic-quotes]

Endings are tough. They can make or break a story, and almost always, they never seem to be enough. They may work for a little while, till the reader fathoms that they were too rapturous to be realistic or too unfastened to be complete. They start playing out all the scenarios that could’ve happened, all the choices that could’ve been done differently. But nothing is more miserable than knowing the ending had already come when the beginning had barely started. And that was what it felt like, as if I were on the last page of a book, reading the last line, realizing there were no more crumpled pages left to turn over.

And it makes you sad, depressed, even, and you want to talk to someone about it, but there's no one you can trust not to judge you.
