I used to think love only came with pain, but this man showed me just how wrong that was. He showed me how to love deeply, strongly, even a touch chaotically, until I know I’m not alone in this anymore. And he’ll make sure I never will be.

“You made me feel worshipped and loved when I thought I was unlovable…Truth is, you were already in me, flowing under my skin and in every thought I didn’t say out loud. You’re part of me in a way I don’t know how to undo. I don’t think I can breathe right without you. I don’t want to try.”

Don’t be like that, Marcus. You should…breathe. I got rid of me, so…so you should have one less problem in your life, yeah?

Peace doesn’t come in a soft bed or a therapist’s office or tucked against Marcus’s chest like I pretended it might. It comes on cold grass with a hole in my chest and someone else’s life pressed behind my ribs.

How poetic.
How sad.

“Relax. You’re acting like a drama empress.”
“It’s drama queen, Pres.”
“I upgraded you. You’re welcome.”

Love him 😂😂
