“

I remember wanting to say it out loud, but I couldn’t. I remember thinking you would say it, but you didn’t.

“

I wanted you. No matter how many times you hurt me.

“

I don’t believe you should be forced to interact with someone toxic simply because they’re family or because you’ve known them forever. If you make me miserable, I’m cutting you out of my life. It doesn’t matter who you are. It matters how you make me feel.

“

When you get used to goodbyes, you get used to leaving too.

“

Life was moving and stopping. Life was present and absent. It was and it wasn’t. 

“

I have said goodbye to many things in my life, but the one that has created the biggest change in my life and to those who I now connect and work with is the goodbyes to my husband.

“

Let’s go on one more date and pretend like everything’s okay.

“

A toxic person will lead you to believe that you are the darkest shade of grey, as they take every speck of colour left in you.

“

Time continues to pass, and the seasons continue to fade. I guess I just never thought our friendship would.

“

Sometimes, when my hands are cold, I reach for the ghost of yours.
