Everyone needs to know that I remember everything

I don’t want to spend the rest of my life writing about feeling alone



"She didn’t need to be saved. She needed to be found and appreciated for exactly who she was"

"She drinks pints of coffee and writes little observations and ideas for stories with her best fountain pen on the linen-white pages of expensive notebooks. Sometimes, when it’s going badly, she wonders if what she believes to be a love of the written word is really just a fetish for stationery."

"I want to get comfortable with my insecurities until I am no longer insecure. I want to be comfortable in my skin so that I do not need to dump any of my discomfort onto someone else in the form of judgment."

"i love what i love - and i am who i am. those, are the only two things that would ever define me."

"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."

 Love is a fascinating thingIf one person takes it, it’s poisonIf two take it, it’s an antidote 
 Pain doesn’t last. And when it’s gone, we have something to show for it. Growth. 
 Kindness is a form of intelligence. 

 I want to talkabout what happenedwithout mentioninghow much it hurt.There has to be a way.To care for the woundswithout reopening them.To name the painwithout inviting it backinto me.
