Love Quote by J.M. Darhower

“I was desperate, baby. I wasn’t lying when I said I couldn’t live if you died. I needed to know you were alive. I needed to see you, and now that you’re safe. I can’t regret it. It sucks, and I know it’s not what any of us wanted, but seeing you here, I know it was worth it.” quote by J.M. Darhower
