-- keeping the moon by sarah dessen --

but it's strange when you've always been told something is true, like the moon will come back. you need proof. and while you wait you feel the entire balance of your world just tipping. it's crazy. but when it's over, & it does come back, that's the best, because it's all you want, everything narrows to just that. it's like this great rush, like for that one second everything's okay with the world again. it's amazing.
