(and yet, there are moments like this when i can't help but wish for a person to embrace me despite how hideous my scars are. a person who will know the tales between every bruise i've had. a person who will learn to take care of my heart. a person who'll see through my facade and love me despite all the hurt. wouldn't that be nice? to be known intensely by someone who will stay despite the grief you mothered.) @888graveyard
