Kindle Notes & Highlights
“The whole world isn’t rotten, but it’s like all you can see is the ugliness,”
“So, is that the truth about love? That it lives even longer than the hearts who are touched by it?”
“Mental illness doesn’t make you a burden. Only a weak person would think that of you.”
It might not have been love at first sight, but it was pretty damn close. It was more like the recognition of souls. Like my soul saw hers and knew instantly that it had found its home.
Because if I’ve learnt anything from this it’s that sometimes to truly love someone you have to let them go.
We’re strangers and soulmates and ghosts from our pasts. I’ve moved on from her, yet I’ve loved her every single day since she left.
“It doesn’t matter how much time passes between us, if you need me, I will always come for you.”
It’s not my condition that was the problem, but how I dealt with it. Having depression didn’t make me any less deserving of Auden’s love, but the way I treated him did.
We’re a tempest. A storm raging over wild waves. Loving Summer-Raine has always been like that. Like a natural disaster. As fatal, devastating and inevitable as a star burning out.
