Empty words Quote by Courtney Peppernell

“They say don’t fall in love with writers because their poems are messy and their letters are empty words dressed up to look pretty. But I say fall in love with me because underneath the mess and in between the lines is a heart too full of love that would follow you to any city.” quote by Courtney Peppernell
