“It’s been a long, hard road but I’ve finally

found the closure I need to move on.

I’ve learned to accept that my all is not always

going to be enough and love is neither

owed nor earned it either is or it’s not.

I gave you the world, but you wanted the stars.”

“There is a small space in my heart I have named after you. I carry it with me everywhere that I go. The awful weight of what-almost-was.”

we love usually

turned out

to be one of three things:

      a home,

“There’s something in your sweet definite gaze that settles my heart and floods life through my veins. Those bright, round eyes are the envy of even the stars. And when they have grown wise and worn, and wrinkle at their corners, they will enchant me just the same.”

“I rarely open up. I don’t like to feel vulnerable or misunderstood. But now and again I get to talking to somebody and something about them resonates with me. Whether total stranger or old friend, in their presence, I feel a familiar calm wash over me, and everything comes gushing out.”
