I deeply desire a Victorian glass greenhouse with all kinds of flowers and herbs, air ferns hanging from all places, and a trickling water fountain to create an atmosphere of serenity.

Borderline

I used to greet each promise of love with a smile / and hands behind my back to conceal the knife / I used to walk the line between fine and borderline out of my mind almost every night / searching for a divine answer in between the shower tiles / thinking my sanity slipped down the drain, leaving only ghosts to rule my mind / and if I had a dime for every time I chose a name better than mine and a dress to hide behind / I wouldn’t be wasting my time putting down words on a line

I’m afraid there’s too much dirt under the fingernails of my past / too many pain-shaped mistakes / and crime-scene-taped fingerprints I don’t want you to find

but you gave me an armful of happiness / and now I’m standing out in the open on the edge of here and forever / your strength stands like a scarecrow in the spring fields of my mind / my black-winged worries, my beady-eyed fears don’t dare come closer / I killed the madness in me, I let those sparks die because I’ve found something better

you replaced all of my arrows with roses / traded in my bullets for blushed cheeks / I am defenseless, happily helpless / safe under the shelter of a promise I know you’ll keep / I smile like a child into the face of the unknown / as it gnaws at the edges of my fields with the appetite of a wildfire / eating up the ground, slowly reaching the earth beneath my feet / but I no longer fear the flames as I lean into the heat

“It’s important to do what’s best for you, whether people approve of it or not. This is your life. You know what’s good for you. And remember that self love takes strength.”

you’re not selfish for wanting to be treated well.

[wnq-writers]

“Love as depicted in the mass media is not love. On the contrary, what the world generally refers to as love is an intense emotionality combining physical attraction, possessiveness, control, addiction, eroticism, and novelty. It is usually evanescent and fluctuating, waxing and waning with varying conditions. When frustrated, this emotion often reveals an underlying anger and dependency that it had masked. That love can turn to hate is a common concept, but what is being spoken about rather than love is an addictive sentimentality and attachment. Hate stems from pride, not love. There probably never was actual love in such a relationship. [Real love] is characterized by the development of a love that is unconditional, unchanging, and permanent. It does not fluctuate because its source within the person who loves is not dependent on external conditions. Loving is a state of being. It is a way of relating to the world that is forgiving, nurturing, and supportive. Love is not intellectual and does not proceed from the mind. Love emanates from the heart. It has the capacity to lift others and accomplish great feats because of its purity of motive…Love takes no position and thus is global, rising above the separation of positionality. It is then possible to be One with another, as there are no longer any barriers. Love is therefore inclusive and expands the sense of self progressively. Love focuses on the goodness of life in all its expressions and augments that which is positive. It dissolves negativity by recontextualizing it rather than by attacking it.”

clockwork, a poem

hour i /

your smile, 

which shines brighter 

than a supernova.

hour ii /

the way you look at me,

like i am a newfound beauty

every time my eyes meet yours.

hour iii /

your laugh

when i say something funny,

loud and bold, unabashedly so.

hour iv /

the way you hold me

tightly, for as long as possible

before it’s too late.

hour v /

your confidence

in loving me, unselfishly,

without a second thought.

hour vi /

the way your touch lingers

on my body long after

we should have let go.

hour vii /

your intelligence,

which never fails to surprise me

in times i need it most.

hour viii /

the way you warm

my body, heart, and soul

every time you’re around.

hour ix /

your creativity,

which is charmingly brilliant in a way

i never thought of.

hour x /

the way you talk to me

in a soft and patent voice, a relief from

the loud, chaotic world.

hour xi /

your ambition

to be the best you can be, even if

you already are the best.

hour xii /

the way you love me, 

a girl who doesn’t love herself.

you dragged her from the dark.

around the clock the hour hand goes,

and with each hour, a new thought

of you. i love you.

“And in March I fell in love with you… not for the first time, but for the last time. At least, I hope it was. I don’t think I could handle you breaking my heart again.”

Books are my friends, my companions. They make me laugh and cry and find meaning in life.

Christopher Paolini, Eragon (via books-n-quotes)

[w1thdrawal]

Home isn’t always in those sparkling eyes and charming grin. Sometimes it’s in mint chip ice cream and chocolate sauce. Sometimes it’s in spa days and cliché movie nights and throwback songs. Sometimes it’s in a road trip with your best friend. Home isn’t always a house, but it isn’t always a relationship either.

get the idea out of your head that your happiness can only be result from a relationship, it’s from whatever you make it of (via w1thdrawal)

[books-n-quotes]

Every once in a while she’ll get worked up and cry like that. But that’s O.K.. She’s letting out her feelings. The scary thing is not being able to do that. When your feelings build up and harden and die inside, then you’re in big trouble.

Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood (via books-n-quotes)
