“Sometimes, the only soul that can mend a broken heart is the one that broke it. For they are the ones holding all the pieces.”
― Patti Roberts, The Angels Are Here

“Tess realized one of the great modern dating sadnesses: everyone is so used to the comforting glow of the computer screen that no one can go so far as to say "good morning" in public without being liquored up.”
― Amelia Gray, AM/PM

“She went around with a broken heart, and she wasn't sure who'd broken it. She thought it was herself, mostly.”

“Do you like me?”
No answer.
Silence bounced, fell off his tongue
and sat between us
and clogged my throat.
It slaughtered my trust.
It tore cigarettes out of my mouth.
We exchanged blind words,
and I did not cry,
I did not beg,
but blackness filled my ears,
blackness lunged in my heart,
and something that had been good,
a sort of kindly oxygen,
turned into a gas oven.”
― Anne Sexton
