Embrace Quote by Ingrid Nickelsen
““Maybe I shouldn’t, but I allow myself to lose myself in his warmth one last time. It’s so tender that for too long I’ve wrongfully seen it as an embrace that could save me. It would have been a beautiful story, and sometimes believing in it was just enough. But time doesn’t stand still. Time always finds us.””
