don’t let your fear of what could happen, make nothing happen. // i hope you find someone that matches your capacity to love // you deserve a lover who takes away the lies and brings you hope, coffee, and poetry.

don’t lower your expectations so people can fit in your life. i don’t care if you’re lonely on that mountain, it’s your mountain. honor that

what’s attractive about a man who isn’t excited as hell to be with you? who doesn’t smile when you walk up? who doesn’t hold your hand? who isn’t all in? 
what’s attractive about a man who is too prideful to just let go and love? what’s attractive about an emotionally unavailable man?

love, communication, respect and trust are the four basic things you need for a relationship to work. if you feel any of those four are missing in the relationship leave them. end of story

boys who arent afraid to tell u when they miss u are the best

i do not exist to impress the world. i exist to live my life in a way that will make me happy.

everything will fall into place and turn out so much better than you hoped or were terrified about. you’ll look back to wonder why you worried so much.

poetry, plays, novels, music, they are the cry of the human spirit trying to understand itself and make sense of our world.

writing is healing

here is enough
wonder in this world
to keep me inspired
for a thousand lifetimes.

if i can’t see it
from my perspective, 
i need to change 
how i’m looking at things

falling in love with
the wrong person
is the most brutal
form of
self-sabotage
there is.

i think gentleness is one of the most disarmingly and captivatingly attractive qualities there are

i’m beginning to think that maybe it’s not just how much you love someone. maybe what matters is who you are when you’re with them.

and with you I WAS MYSELF.

to think that sometimes poetry is just rejected love letters shared to the world, because they couldn’t touch the heart of the one that mattered.

You do the right thing not because you think there will be a reward, but just because it’s the right thing. Sometimes doing the right thing is hard, and sometimes it only benefits others at a detriment to you. It’s still the right thing to do

to avoid pain, they avoid pleasure. to avoid death, they avoid life.

need a cuddle that turns into sex that turns into a cuddle that turns into napping together

you are not accidental. the world needs you. without you, something will be missing in existence and nobody can replace it.

if you lose someone but find yourself,
you won

the intelligent person will go inward first. before going anywhere else, you will go into your own being. that is the first thing, and it should have the first preference. only when you have known yourself can you go anywhere else. then wherever you go you will carry a blissfulness around you, a peace, a silence, a celebration

toxic environments bring out poor behaviors in even the most patient of individuals. survivors of psychological abuse find themselves behaving in ways that don’t fit their normal personality

i hope you get where you’re going, and be happy when you do.

i am learning to love the sound of my feet walking away from things that aren’t meant for me.

u will find ur person. sometimes it may confuse u bc they’re not shiny like a movie the way u imagined, but u’ll know by the calm they bring

a man who knows how to be soft and gentle is so attractive to me. a man desperately ignoring emotions and trying to preserve his hyper masculinity is such a turn off to me.

find out who you are, then do it on purpose.

i must learn to love the fool in me - the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries
