If he were to put his heart in my hand, he might never find it again. And I'm not cruel enough to let him break while he tries to heal the impossible.

About This Quote

After they were apart for a week, the two lovers were reunited. As they embraced, they remembered all the reasons why they fell in love in the first place. Her hand rested on his chest. He was smiling down at her.

“If he were to put his heart in my hand, he might never find it again,” he said. “And I’m not cruel enough to let him break while he tries to heal the impossible.”
