Sweet Violets

“I know you’re sad, so I won’t tell you to have a good day. Instead, I advise you to simply have a day. Stay alive, feed yourself well, wear comfortable clothes and don’t give up on yourself just yet. It’ll get better. Until then, have a day.”

“Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but of playing a poor hand well.”

“I just want to hold his hand while he’s driving. I want to scream along with him to the words of our favourite songs. I want the early morning kisses, and the goodnight ones, too. I want to wrap my arms around him when he’s sad, and I want to fall asleep on his chest. I want to make him breakfast and bite his lip and ruffle his hair. I want to cuddle up with him on the couch and watch our favourite movies. I want to lay in bed with him after a whole night of pillow talk. I want him when he’s sad, when he’s happy, when he’s angry, when he’s nervous… I want to make this boy the happiest he’s ever been. I just want to be his girl.”
