“She loved you.
She loved you more than anyone could ever loved someone, she loved you with all her might and she grabbed herself so hard to you that she went crazy.
But you didn’t love her. You just didn’t want to be alone or maybe she was good for your ego or she made you feel better about your miserable life, but you didn’t love her…because you don’t destroy the person you love.
And yes, it’s true, sincerity can be dangerous, but she learned how to play with fire.”
