Someone Real


“Someone real," I hear myself saying. 
"Someone who never has to pretend, 
and who I never have to pretend around. 
Someone who's smart, but knows how to laugh at himself. 
Someone who would listen to a symphony and start to cry, 
because he understands music can be too big for words. 
Someone who knows me better than I know myself. 
Someone I want to talk to first thing in the morning 
and last thing at night. 
Someone I feel like I've known my whole life, 
even if I haven't.”

~ Jodi Picoult, Sing You Home
