“I’m thankful for you, I’m thankful for the time we shared, even if it wasn’t as long as I had wished and pictured it to be, I’m thankful for the days we spent together where you made me feel as if I didn’t have a worry in the world even though I knew you were just someone passing by. I’m thankful for you leaving and not fighting for me also, because by you doing that it had taught me that everything is so temporary and you better appreciate and love every single person you meet because you don’t know when you’re going to lose them, I’m thankful for you showing me how not to love someone, because by that I now know how to love someone, that someone just isn’t you, and I’m thankful for that.”

“No matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.”

“Just for the record darling, not all positive change feels positive in the beginning.”

“Maybe if I hadn’t been so afraid of rejection I could’ve shown you how much love I had in store.”

“They say you can tell so much about a person by the way they leave you. You left me silently, without a word. You watched my body crumble to pieces at your feet and you didn’t even bother to help pick me back up. This tells me that you are selfish. That you weren’t ever capable of owning your decisions. That you weren’t ever capable of holding in your possession a heart as pure as mine. You left me silently, without a word and I think this is why they also say silence is deafening.”

“The moments that will sting the most are when you have to fight the urge to text him. When you wake up in the middle of the night and the first thing running through your mind is his name. Or when you’re in a crowded room and the only thing that comes to mind is ‘I wonder if he thinks of me’. When you have to skip some of your favorite songs because they don’t start fires in your heart anymore, but the melodies are loud reminders of his absence.”
