❝Relax, I’m not traumatized. I just have nightmares, insomnia, and a slight aversion to trusting you.❞...

❝I just want to know if there’s still space for me.❞

❝I don’t know if I’m being unfair. I just... don’t know where I stand.❞

❝I’m not the same man I was sixteen years ago. But the one thing I know is that I still melt every time I see you.❞

❝You thought I was the ideal man. The reliable one. And I... I simply let you keep believing it.❞

❝If one day you decide this isn't good for you anymore, I'll understand. But that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt... or that I want you to go.❞

❝I know what I did can’t be erased. But I’m here, because I don’t want to hide anymore.❞

❝I don’t know if I deserve your forgiveness. But I still wait for you to look at me the way you used to.❞

❝ I didn't lock you up to hold you back. I did it to feel like you were safe....

❝I don’t know if I’m rehearsing... or simply saying out loud everything I never dared to tell you without a script.❞

❝Is this the part where you act like you’re my mother?❞
