6 Quotes by Meggie Royer

We are all too fixed on wrecking ourselves rather than bettering ourselves.

I want to look into a mirror that will love my own reflection harder than I hate myself.

I don’t just want to take your breath away. I want to rip it from your mouth and keep it locked away between my teeth. You can only have it back if you kiss me again.

On your worst days do not look in the mirror and call yourself pretty. Call yourself trying, call yourself surviving, call yourself learning how to get through a day, a week, a month or year. Call yourself still learning.

Love yourself down to the bone, down to the roof of your mouth. Leave no stone unturned, no cell unwanted. Love down to the blood no matter how fast it boils.

Some days I will be a stuttering apology and you won’t know how to handle all the things I’ve done wrong.
