“I hate you for all the years I ‘ll have to live without you. How can a heart hurt this much and still go on beating? How can I feel this bad without dying from it?
I ‘ve bruised my knees with praying to have you back. None of my prayers have been answered. I tried to send them up to heaven but they ‘re trapped here on earth, like bobwhites beneath the snow. I try to sleep and it’s like I ‘m suffocating
Where have you gone?
Once you said that if I wasn’t with you, it wouldn’t be heaven.
I can’t let go of you. Come back and haunt me. Come back”

~Lisa Kleypas, Dream Lake

“You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
And, every whisper, it’s the worst, emptied out by a single word
There is a hollow in me now…

And
Every whisper, every sigh
Eats away at this heart of mine
And there is a hollow in me now.

So I put my faith in something unknown
I’m living on such sweet nothing
But I’m trying to hope with nothing to hold
I’m living on such sweet nothing”

~Florence Welch Calvin Harris

“Love was feeling the person everywhere, under your skin, in every strand of your hair, in your heart, in your bones, in the tone of your voice when you said their name.

Even if you weren’t ever going to be together, he was the air you breathed, invisible but everywhere”

~Jacqueline Simon Gunn

“She never knew her tender soul died daily as she helped him you fix his broken pieces of life. His departure was no longer a pain but a slow death”

“In so many ways, suffering – when allowed – looks like love. Our cry of suffering is the cry for reunion: it is the calling towards home and the awakening of our True Nature. When we repress that call of suffering – which is the precise music of our healing – we also repress the love”

~Georgi Y. Johnson

“Love is a transient thing. A thought, a goal, a verb, an idea, an action. It can be so real, and yet… not. To some, it’s the ultimate high, an all-consuming obsession. For those who have been love-starved, it’s something else entirely. A bitter poison, a weakness. I thought I knew my definition of love until it destroyed me, and, in the wreckage I was remade. Born of Blood and Flames”

~Amber Darwin

“I want my illusion back, I want the feeling of hope to return because reality is too cruel without a maybe….

I want my missing pieces back, the one’s you borrowed from me because I can’t make myself whole with what you left of me….
