“Leila was untouchable. She was in my heart now, and I'd carry her always, on this earth that every day gives men a chance.”
“She carried a knife inside of herself now, one that was always cutting her. She could feel it every time she swallowed, every time her thoughts strayed from the splendor of the wild.”
“It was as if every day a piece of my heart was plucked out by birds and carried away little by little.”
“If she was mine, I'd cherish every inch of her. And I wanted to. Now”
“I've been poked and prodded in places I'd always prided myself on keeping untouched for that one special doctor who gives me a ring and a promise someday.”
“Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day of your life.”
