“I love you. Too soon?”

I’m sorry I couldn’t meet your standards. I’m sorry you weren’t able to fix me. I’m sorry you’re clearly hurting and I’m sorry I won’t be around for you to knock me down so you can feel better about yourself.

It hurts when someone doesn’t want you, but it hurts even more to keep chasing someone who doesn’t care.

Two years ago, depression snuck up on me when I wasn’t looking.

He said something like “we don’t have to do this” so I reassured him that the night had to end with him inside me and asked that he please shut his mouth and fetch me some more wine.

Bad girls have good stories, after all.

The saddest part about meeting someone you believe will be in your future is realizing that they don’t see YOU in THEIR future.

Broken people are the strongest people I know. Their pain is so beautiful to me. I absorb it, and, like painting on a blank canvas, transform it into art.

I know how it feels, sitting there trying to figure out what you could have done differently. Playing scenarios over and over in your head. Analyzing texts, trying to figure out the exact moment things went wrong.

The truth is, I’m just something people enjoy ‘til they get bored. When the lights turn off and the jokes stop rolling, I’m terrified you’ll see how damaged I really am—and leave.

Trust that time heals.
