sometimes we expect so much from people, because we would be willing to do the same thing for them.

standing with two feet firmly on the ground
i hear the wind blowing in my ears
in my two hands i hold flower petals
i hold onto them tightly
i finally let them go
against the wind
i see the vastness of the ocean
pastel hues color the sky
i close my eyes
feeling each beat of my heart
i am as free as the wind

she puts in her headphones
to get away from the world
and the chaos in her mind
"music," she thought to herself, "is my escape."
how to escape time: music.

i used to think that home was a place until i found You.
He is my home.

maybe i am too afraid to love for the fear of getting hurt.

it's okay not to be okay.

when you look back at your life
are you gonna regret the things you didn't do
or look back and say
i did all that i could
and be satisfied with the way you lived

don't live in your head so much
and wait for things to happen
or things to come to you
sometimes you gotta make things happen yourself

so don't get caught up in the past or the future too much
be in the present
do what you can
with what you have
stop living in the shadows
and let the light shine
written a day after my 23rd birthday.
