“That’s what childhood abuse and neglect does to us. It makes us fucking starving for attention, for validation, for love. And we get it all confused. We go looking for it in all the wrong places. We bear the weight of the world on our shoulders.
Facts!
“I told you I would ruin all others for you. And that declaration had nothing to do with my cock.”
How romantic!

The accuracy!!

“Deserve is a strange concept,” I murmured. “Do any of us truly deserve pain? Struggle? Loss?” I shook my head, glancing up at the clear sky of twinkling stars. “These things come for all of us, anyway. They’re inescapable.

Better to remember that it’s all temporary, that a new season is right around the corner. I feel the most peaceful when I surrender.”
