1. EVERYDAY I TELL MYSELF, TODAY WILL BE THE DAY YOU WILL BE HAPPY AGAIN. EVERYDAY, I AM DROWNING.
2. MY MIND IS A UNIVERSE AND I AM AFRAID TO EXPLORE THE DARKEST PARTS OF IT. THERE IS NO LIGHT EXCEPT FOR THE GHOST OF HER.
3. I LOOK TO THE SUN AND I TELL MYSELF THE WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL, I LOOK TO THE GROUND AND I TELL MYSELF THAT THIS WORLD IS A SHIPWRECK.
4. I USED TO WRITE HER NAME ON MY WRIST. SHE KNOWS WHO SHE IS.
5. I AM GLASS. I BREAK EASILY.
6. SIX DAYS HAVE PASSED SINCE MY LATEST OCEAN OF TEARS BUT I AM STILL NOT ALRIGHT.
7. MY BODY IS SCARRED WITH CHILDHOOD MEMORIES AND OTHER MEMORIES. I AM IMPERFECT.
8. I NEVER KNEW WORDS COULD TEAR SOMEONE APART IN SUCH A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME UNTIL I MET HER.
9. EVERYDAY THIS UNIVERSE IS EXPANDING AND ONE DAY THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT PHYSICAL DARKNESS, IF I WAS STILL ALIVE I WOULD BE READY FOR IT.
10. HAPPINESS IS A LIE. I GUESS SHE WAS A LIE.
11. WHO KNEW THAT SO FEW WORDS COULD MAKE YOU CRY AN OCEAN.
12. STAYING UP PAST 3AM NOW IS TOXIC TO ME. MY MIND IS A MESS.
13. I WROTE NOTES TO MYSELF ABOUT YOU IN MY PLANNER EVERY FEW DAYS, I WENT THROUGH ALMOST ALL OF AN ERASER THE DAY AFTER.
14. FOURTEEN DAYS AGO YOU STILL WERE MINE, YOU ARE NO LONGER MY HAPPINESS.
15. AT AGE FIFTEEN I HOPE THAT I HAVE FOUND LOVE.
16. I WONDER IF I'M PRETTIER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF A MIRROR.
17. SOAP IS THE ONLY THING THAT CAN CLEANSE MY MOUTH AFTER SAYING YOUR NAME SO MANY TIMES.
18. AT AGE EIGHTEEN I WILL BE FREE.
19. THE NIGHT THAT I LOST YOU I HAD A DREAM ABOUT YOU. I WOKE UP IN TEARS.
20. I AM GOING TO BE ALRIGHT.
