“Beauty in the strength that carried you through. Beauty in how you refused to be broken. Beauty that you never let yourself become cruel like him. Addie, there isn’t a thing about you that isn’t beautiful.”

“There is nothing more beautiful than watching you be completely free.”

“He’s the place you always come back to. But he also sends you out into the universe.”

I don’t want to go to sleep without you. I want to get you a million different kinds of takeout to try. I want to make fun of dumb commercials with you. I want to rub your feet while you read. What I don’t want is a life without you in it.”

“I love you. Started falling for you the moment I glued your hand. Lost a little more of myself to you every day. I don’t want to live this life without you.”
