About This Quote

The way I see it, my heart is a house that needs constant upkeep. It serves as a home to my most important possessions: “my life,” “my dreams,” and “my memories.” And it’s not just a house that houses these things; it holds them in the best possible way. But I know that if I allow people to spend too much time there, they could leave marks on me that will never fade away. That scares me. The last thing I want is for someone to break into my heart and leave their indelible mark on it.
