She is the love affair you cannot, will not forget.

Even knowing that our love couldn’t last and you weren’t able to stay, I would still do it all over again in a heartbeat.

I knew, yet I dove right in. I knew, yet I still desperately hoped I was wrong. I knew, yet I still couldn’t help but love you.

Don’t fall for me unless you love me for me.

You don’t need him to complete you or validate your feelings. He admires your strength and knows that he’s blessed to be with you.

Don’t try to find closure.

He doesn’t just ask about your yesterday, but wants to be in your tomorrow.

To fight for my own happiness, I have to stop fighting for you.

I grew to listen to my instincts and put myself first. I now hold myself as I break apart and slowly, pick up all the pieces and rebuild my life. I have learned to appreciate my own company.

He will never change. If he could change, he would have done so previously. Waiting for him to change one day is like waiting for rain in the drought. It’s hopeless and out of your control.

Her love is wild and all-encompassing. It is the piercing rays that almost blinded you when you met eyes with the sun. Her love is loud and cannot be contained.

You think that you can only be happy if and when you find love.

You were like an actor so flawless in your craft that I was left reeling at your ovation. A magician that had me spellbound and unable to differentiate what was real and what was not. A romancer that took my breath away and subsequently stole my heart from me. And I’ve decided I’m done.

His love is boundless and without restraint. He is willing to follow you to the ends of the earth to show his sincerity. He wants to love you to the end of time and to eternity and beyond.

You are torn between ending it and ‘trying harder’ with him.

You are afraid of love because every beginning feels like it’s heading into what seems like an inevitable end.

You don’t play mind games. If you meet someone you are interested in, you aren’t afraid to let him know.

I cannot stop loving you if you show me remnants of how you still do. I cannot move on in my life until your absence shows me there’s nothing stopping me.
