Broken promises Quote by Ellen Hopkins
““Private dreams Snare you. Swallow you. Make you feel like you're all alone, like you don't want to sleep and fall into them. What good are dreams if you can't share them? How sad to think there are people who must move forward into some hollow future, empty of hope. Destined to travel an avenue potholed with broken promises.””
