"And all I ever wished, is to not suffer the same heartache all over again."

“I had to decide that whatever happened I would be alright. That was the hardest decision I’ve ever made, the decision to protect myself no matter what happened.”

“And I just don’t want to wait for someone to figure out what they want, only for it to turn out not to be me”

“I am simply thankful for your existence- whether I am meant to be a part of it or not.”

“because being with you is like finally turning on the light after nights spent alone in the dark. it’s like coming home after a long day and kicking off your shoes. like a steaming cup of tea that warms you from the inside. it’s like waking up to sunshine spilling into your room, the feeling of the first drop of rain trailing down your skin. it’s everything that i thought was missing in the past, that one piece i could never quite figure out. it’s realising that everything i’ve been fighting for was worth it.”

““I’d never chosen to be alone, but that was the way things had turned out, and I’d grown used to it.””
