“We assume others show love the same way we do — and if they don’t, we worry it’s not there.”

“I envy the blankets wrapped around you and wish my arms could replace them”

“She cursed me at such length and with such inventiveness I had to check both my watch and my dictionary.”

“Say you want me too.”

“I look for ways to say “I love you””

Such wounds to the heart will probably never heal. But we cannot simply sit and stare at our wounds forever.

“If it’s still in your mind, it is still in your heart.”

“We were together–all else has long been forgotten by me.”
