“Each time you happen to me all over again.”
- Edith Wharton, The Age of Innocence
"I stopped explaining myself when I realized people only understand from their level of perception."
"
how do you expect to be forgiven for all your faults
and flaws
but still hold all of mine against me
even after all this time.
how do you expect to be loved again
after all the things you’ve done
and all the things you’ve said
when you love me conditionally.
how do you expect me to accept all of your growing pains
when you shun me for not being the ‘old me’.
My heart is not a safe haven for hypocrites.
I cannot love you through all of this.
do not expect me to.
