#heartbreak quotes
do you miss me?
or am i nothing more than a lovesick fool, leading myself on to another inevitable heartbreak?
-you were my favorite mistake. c.r.
“for what it’s worth, i still love you.
i swear- i never wanted to lose you.
but.. i’m guessing that’s not worth a whole lot.”
-i never had anything to lose until i had you. c.r.
there’s one thing i’ll never understand, though.
why, despite the millions of people who would love and cherish me as i did them, does my heart still want you and only you?
why does my heart yearn for someone who does not want me?
why does my heart desire to be broken?
-and why was it so easy for you to break it? c.r.
“i had a dream about you last night.
i was so scared that i’d missed my chance with you, but you held me in your arms and kissed me like no time had passed.
i was so happy.
then… i woke up.
i woke up to my cold, empty bed.
i woke up to you a thousand miles away, dreaming of someone else.
i woke up to the unique sensation of everything i’d ever wanted suddenly slipping away from me in the opening of an eye.”
-only in a dream is anything the way it’s supposed to be. c.r.
maybe it wasn’t meant to be.
maybe you were only in my life to teach me what love really meant, in fleeting, ephemeral moments
but god, how i wish it was
god, why can’t i stop thinking about what we might have been if it was?
-why can’t i stop loving you? c.r.
“because despite everything- despite the weeks i spent feeling neglected, despite how much you hurt me, despite the pool of resentment in my stomach directed towards you, despite the way you broke my heart - i still love you.
i still love you, and god knows i would do it all again.”
-i would break my own heart for you. c.r.
“she couldn’t take it anymore.
“I LOVE YOU, OKAY?!” she screamed.
“is that what you want to hear?” all of the pent up frustration, anguish, and emotions that had been building those past months suddenly burst out, pouring out of her until there was nothing left, and suddenly, it was calm again.
“i love you. i do. and you broke my fucking heart, but i still love you. i can’t stop. i don’t… i don’t know how to stop.” her words, quiet now, escaped into the air like a ghost.”
-i don’t even know if i want to stop. c.r.
“i know i was not easy to love,
but please,
know that i would have loved you til we became one with the clouds,
til all the stars in the sky finally died,
til the universe was born anew.
i would have given you everything.
but you chose to mask the reality of who i was for the idea of a girl that was easier to love.
can you blame me, then?
can you blame me, for not being her?”
-can i blame you for wishing i was someone else? c.r.
“and then.. it was over. it faded quietly, but nonetheless quickly just as it once sparked in the beginning, like a fiery whirlwind of passion that ran out of oxygen.
all things come to an end - i knew that, of course.
i had just hoped that it’d take a bit longer for us.”
-time has never done me any favors. c.r.
“tell me to move on. i’m always going to be thinking in possibilities; possibilities that we can get back together, possibilities that things can go back to the way they were, possibilities that you love me, still. and that’s going to drive me mad. so, please. tell me to move on. for my own sake. i can’t unless i hear you say it.”
-tell me you don’t love me like you said you did. c.r.
“i still love you. you know that right? i always did, probably always will. lord knows i was never good at letting things - or people - go.”
-and other things i’ll never tell you. c.r.
every night, i think back
to what we had and where it went wrong
all my friends said, “he’ll hurt you”
guess i really should’ve known it all along
i wonder if i’ll see you someday,
flashback to when we first met in your lonely little town
i’ll smile tightly and say “you look good”
and i’ll get deja vu when you say, “you too”
god, i really should’ve known right from the start,
that someday you’d shatter my heart
and the only thing that break really did was break us apart
and the girl you love now, was she worth it?
are you happy with the life you chose?
maybe you hate me now, maybe you blame me for what happened,
but darling,
our shadows, they know what they know
-can you blame me for running? c.r.
I don’t want to live in a world without you.
But I also can’t live in a world of heartbreak.
The nights are cold when you’re away.
Our souls must be intertwined.
I want you in every single memory.
If given the choice, I’d do it all over again.
I hate loving you.
