Love Quote by Megan Hart
““Sometimes you say things because they make you feel better. Sometimes you say that because it makes me feel better. “I love you” stays locked behind my teeth because there is no way saying it aloud will make you feel anything but worse. I don’t say it, because when you love someone, really love them, you don’t want anything you do to ever hurt them.””
