Back to Yesterday (Bleeding Hearts #2)

by Whitney Barbetti

I don’t want to fill the void with more of me. Maybe I’m learning I’m less of me when I’m not with you.

All that is holding me together is some foreign skin and fragile bones. Around my waist is a tether to you and I’m afraid it’s longer than I am strong enough to carry this sack of skin and pile of bones back to you.

It was amazing to me that we could hurt so deeply over the things said by inconsequential people.

I never realized my silence was tied to my suffering. I never realized how lonely my heart was.

I’m not who I’m meant to be, but I want to find her for you.

Suffering is a choice. If you don’t want it, lose it.”

You gave me a place in your life, and I’ll hold a place for you in my heart.

It’s okay to feel the hurt you’re feeling, and it’s okay to let it go.”
