What happened to you
Is part of your story.
And I love you even though
It came with no glory.
Because what matters to me,
Isn't your strength.
It isn't your ability
To stop, breath and think.
I thought it was obvious, but I guess I'll explain.
It's your heart, don't you see?
Though it's been through all this pain
It's remained earnest and pure.
Even though you can't see.  
Please trust me when I say,
That where you are is where I'll be.
Always and forever

Finley in Despair
If I die tonight,
One scary theory
Is true

If one memory repeats,
For all eternity
I hope it is about you
A scary but beautiful theory after death: your most cherished memories will repeat over and over and over again.

We do want to be loved, don't we?
But it is different from sympathy

When you are down and they see your tears
When you almost give up from all of your fears

When you feel you're alone and no one's at your side
When things went wrong and there's no one to guide

When all your deeds were not right all along
When you feel different and can't find where you belong

When you feel all your goals stay undone
When your weakness pushes you to depend on someone

When you feel someone came along to care
When the person doesn't feel the same and you're not aware

We do want to be loved, don't we?
But please don't expect for love when the truth is it's just his sympathy...

Nothing personal. I am not talking about a specific person. Generally speaking, I feel like it's unfair to give people that false hope. Seriously, this was inspired by a common situation  to some couples lately.

We are two different people, I know
But we have common feeling to show
One soul, one spirit, we grow
We dance as one heart, one shadow

Eleanor Rigby
They called her lost
Because she was looking
For her home.

But those who never
Searched,
Were they ever home?


-- Eleanor
The only difference
between who you are
and who you want to be
is what you do

The more I learn,
the more I see religion as a man-made idea
to make us feel that we are some how special
compared to all the other life on earth.
I think I'm scared to accept this
because without my fear of the afterlife,
what else is really keeping my spirit
tethered to this world?
Love?
My need to not present myself
as a burden to others?

You were the story I would never write
the dog-eared pages in my favourite books
and the highlighted words in the best poems i knew
you were my 6am coffee and my midday sun
and the twilight that illuminated the walls of this old house
you were the sunset that hid behind the ocean
before arising again as the moon, from the earth
my heaven, my universe and all of my stars
I let you become a god and you eventually turned to myth
we wrote legends about you, ballads and tragedies,
and i saw the sunlight leak from your eyes
and spill onto this concrete over months of aching
golden ichor that seeped into the cracks of the soil
you made flowers grow where you bled, and there were stars,
stars instead of tears when you cried
When i cried with you, and we built a new universe
one entirely our own, no demons, no monsters,
no angels and gods and cruel humans can find us here
we fly together
we die together
you and I until the end
this isnt a love song, im not in love please i just miss you

I'm the black of the night sky and you are the stars.
Without me you wouldn't shine so bright,
But without you, oh I'd be so empty.

In case no one has ever thanked you for you existence
I would like to be the first;

Thank you <3
For choosing, to be here.
To stay here.

I know sometimes it is hard. You will question why. A lot.

Thank you. God Bless you my friend.
I know for myself I didn't think I would last this long. :)

I donte wante to rush nothing
I donte wante man to rush to slip his slippery tounge in Ma mouth.
I wante man to rush wit ring on ma finger first
And be a dedicated boye
A husban.
Not a man who donte takee kare of his chika
