Broke my heart Quote by Anonymous
“I looked back on us today, and I honestly dont know why I missed you, and why I wanted you back. Sure, at the beginning we were kids rushing into things we had no idea what about, but slowly, instead of trusting you more, I trusted you less, and the more I loved you, the less I loved myself. But now Im free, and Im not sorry. I had to get out. I knew it was over long before you said it. And I thought you broke my heart, but you merely made it stronger, made it resilient. Of course Ill never forget you, but theres no way Im ever going back. So goodbye, my first love. Thank you for being such a fabulous waste of time.”
