Quotes For Broken Heart Quotes

“I have written you a hundred letters,
each one folded into the quiet between breaths,
sealed with the weight of words
that never learned how to leave my mouth.”
― Mason Carter, Saltwater & Smoke: Poems of Almosts, Goodbyes, and What We Leave Behind

“You were never mine to keep,
only to hold like a palmful of river water,
cool against my skin,
slipping through the gaps between my fingers
before I could learn the weight of you.”
― Mason Carter, Saltwater & Smoke: Poems of Almosts, Goodbyes, and What We Leave Behind
