“Every morning, I wake up and forget just for a second that it happened. But once my eyes open, it buries me like a landslide of sharp, sad rocks. Once my eyes open, I'm heavy, like there's to much gravity on my heart.”

“I was, but then I realized that I was holding on to something that didn't exist anymore. That the person I missed didn't exist anymore. People change. The things we like and dislike change. And we can wish they couldn't all day long but that never works.”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah

“I take a deep breath,
count to ten,
and bury it,
way down deep”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah

“The only excuse I can think of is the truth – she’s broken. Until someone can figure out how to fix her, what else can she do?”
