" I’ll pray for you to not break, I’ll pray for you to be safe. I’ll sit on my knees and pray… pray for you to get better. I’ll use all my wishes and wish you all the best, wish you’ll find peace within yourself, in silence or in the loudest place. You’ll get over it, you’ll get rid of it. Baby, the darkness won’t remain. "
" And you tried to change, didn’t you? Closed your mouth more. Tried to be softer, prettier, less volatile, less awake… You can’t make homes out of human beings. Someone should have already told you that. And if he wants to leave, then let him leave. You are terrifying, and strange, and beautiful. Something not everyone knows how to love. "
