  Three things I never thought I’d be by thirty, yet all my daily reality.
  This is not the life I would have chosen, but it’s the hand I’ve been dealt.
  I love my daughter.
  I loved Belle.
  I’m not interested in more heartache.
  Relationships are a thing of the past.
  Until I meet
  her
   -
  She’s the awakening I desperately need, but one I’m not sure I deserve.

  Everything happens for a reason.
  Time heals all wounds.
  
  You’re too young to give up on love.
  They say that, but they’re wrong.
  My world crumbled when my fiancé died.
  Then I met
  him
   –
  He’s flawed in the same ways.
  Broken in the same places.
  Scared of the same things.
  He looks at me like I’m his salvation.
  And I
  want
   to be, but an open heart means risking a broken one.
