The Lost Child

“You sometimes think you want to disappear, but all you really want is to be found.”

“I’m not into convincing people I’m worthy. I’m into people who’ll convince me on my worst days that I’m still worth the world.”

“Never push a loyal person to the point where they no longer care.”

“Always, always trust your first gut instincts. If you feel something’s wrong, it usually is.”

“You don’t deserve someone who comes back, you deserve someone who never leaves.”

“I hope you fall in love with someone who never lets you fall asleep thinking you’re unwanted.”

“Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.”

“To have someone understand your mind is a different kind of intimacy.”

“I owe myself the biggest apology for putting up with what I didn’t deserve.”
