We are walking archives wearing the faces of foremothers; the faces we will wear to kiss our graveyard of lovers goodbye before walking onto our own battlefields.

𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐓𝐎 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 ; a collection of enemies to lovers sentence starters . change the pronouns if needed .

i know that you are my enemy , but you have intoxicated me into falling in love with you .

you're the first person who is vulnerable enough to make me impossibly weak .

will i ever regret my own choice for loving you instead of killing you ?

forget who we are , let's make our new life together .

at first you were the hell that you gave me , until you become my heaven .

I'll try my best to deserve you .

i seek for peace , until i found you .

tell me , why does my own enemy could make feel safe ?

though you are dangerous , you are also capable of love .

my hands have stained with bloods and violence , yet you choose to hold them like a precious thing .

i've hurt you , why would you seek love and warmth in me ?

i'd rather die in your arms than being stabbed by you .

curse me with your love , darling .

what did you do to me to make me fall in love with you ?

you're so pure and innocent , and i am scared to hold you and break you into pieces .

losing you is my worst nightmare .

i'm sorry for hurting you .

be in my dreams to replace the nightmares you have given me .

why do you want me of all people ?

i can't help myself from falling in love with you .

let's have a peaceful life , shall we ?

i shouldn't have given you the scar , i hate it so much .

be happy with me .

i've always hated your smile , but as i keep seeing you smile , i begin to admire them .

god really gives me a soulmate in a possible way , doesn't he ?

i'm grateful to have you as my enemy .

i feel calm when i am with you .

teach me how to love , so i won't hurt you .

all i knew in my life: love is a weakness . then you came into my life , making me stronger not to lose you .

every second i have spent with you , i'll treasure them to remember you .

you don't have any idea how much i love you .

there are many reasons why i hate about you , but those reasons turn into something why i love you .

we were destined to be enemies , so we could fight against each other until we tire ourselves and find many reasons why we should stop and forgive each other .

i forgive you , despite the hell you have put me through .

let us move forward into something new .

i should've let you die , but i chose to protect you .

sit , and let me tell you the reasons why am i falling in with you .

it's impossible , isn't it ? how two enemies can have feelings for each other ?

let me protect you instead of fighting against you .

each day i am always worried something dangerous might happen to you , but i am the danger , aren't i ?
