Forever Quote by Julie Buntin
““One of us fell easily asleep, a million days left except that particular one, forever almost over, an ending that happens again and again no matter how much I don't want it to. Maybe that's all loss is. What happens, whether you like it or not. What won't let you go. Marlena - Look. I didn't forget. I wrote it down.””
