Mira R. Aridi Quotes

You pull away and suddenly I have more room to grow.

Maybe if you hold me tight, our love won’t be as shallow.

And when you win all wars of life, there will remain one you must lose. Time.

I’ve come to see that life does not only exist where you do. There’s sense of life here too.

Nothing hurts me more than when I tell you to leave me alone, and you do.

A year has passed, and even after all that has changed, I know one thing hasn’t. I still want you.
