“Just stay with me, don’t interfere with fate now that we’ve reconnected.”

“I feel like fate has brought us together again. I also believe that one night, so long ago, just wasn’t the right time for us. But tonight is.”

“Just know you’ll always be my once in a lifetime.”

“I wasn't just kissing you. I was also whispering in your mouth.”

“I suddenly realize that finding my past in pieces has actually brought me closer to my future.”

“I'm still a broken girl struggling through the stages of my grief, trying to reenter the real world without the man who is still part of me.”

“I love her so much and I want to not only show her, but also tell her just how much. Letting go of her hands, I softly trail my fingers back up her body, playfully teasing her along the way, but stopping at her heart to trace it. I can feel the goosebumps form on her skin as I lower my head down to kiss the line I just etched. "I love you."I kiss my way back up to her lips and gently cup her chin. I look into her eyes and tell her exactly how I feel. "Dahlia, I will love you forever." Then I kiss her and finish telling her my thoughts. "In this lifetime and in the next.”
