Don’t show her how well you can love her and then not love her, that’s weak.

Time is powerful, you will learn to run past people you were terrified to look at.

I was raised on the mountains, and you thought I’d be afraid of a little thunder?

People leave because staying requires effort.

Never be the reason someone relates to a sad song.

I’m not sure if this makes sense but the most we’ve ever loved was in times we were hurt.

Never love someone just to replace the one you loved.

My mother told me; son, love her so much she understands how beautiful she is- with or without you.

I am what you designed me to be. I am your blade. You cannot now complain if you also feel the hurt.
