I didn't want to give you the one last part of myself that I couldn't take back. And then you were gone... And I realized it was already yours. It had been since the beginning. Except that I hadn't told you. It drove me mad, the thought that you would never know. Lisa Kleypas
About This Quote

The instant I saw you, I knew there was something different about you. You were my missing piece, the missing piece that I had been searching for. And now that you were here, I was terrified to let you see me. I wasn't used to anyone seeing the real me. But if I didn't show you my true self, I would always wonder what you thought of me, and whether or not it mattered to you that I wasn’t perfect.
