"If we could capture feelings like we capture pictures, none of us would ever leave our rooms."

[poisoned-words]

Remember how it all started? How we had an inside joke before anyone had even said hello. How it felt like I’d already known you my whole life when we only just started talking. Remember how I got butterflies whenever I spoke to you? Remember how I gave it all up for you? How I willingly gave you my innocence and you even more willingly took it. How we laid for hours afterwards talking about God and how we’re both going to hell. How I told you things I’ve never told anyone before. Remember how you told me to never catch feelings? Remember how I caught feelings? How you watched it happen and chose to ignore it. How you pretended not to notice I was completely intoxicated with you. Remember how you ignored the time I drank too much vodka and let everything spill out? Remember how you told me it was all nothing? How you tore apart my whole life with the words “we had sex, move on” . How you told me to find someone who loved me because you couldn’t. Remember how I swore that was the end? Remember how three days later I found myself drunk at night in your town? How I left my friends so you could sneak me into your house. How i found your lips on my neck all over again and how we had to be quiet so we didn’t wake up your family upstairs. Remember how when we were finished you screamed at me “never fucking fall in love” Remember how I fell in love? Remember how I fell in love?

It was probably nothing but it felt like the world.

It broke my heart; the way you looked at her- like she was a fresh breath of air after being under water for too long.

You’re the only one for me. I know I fucked up. For the past few years we have never been on the same page. I’ve grown with you. You showed me so many things. You opened my eyes to a world I never knew existed. You had me. My heart. My all. You had and still have all of that. The empty feeling I get when I’m without you is cos you’re such a big part of my life. You’re the good in me. I’m head-over-heels in love with you and I’m sorry that it took me so long to realize. I asked God to help me break the chains that were holding me back and He did. I can’t be great without you. I know you found love elsewhere, but one of God’s many gifts to us is hope; I’ll never lose hope in us. I know we’re broken, broken as Hell. I just wish you could see how good we are together. How we complete each other in so many ways. I know this is me being selfish as fuck and that I should be happy for you but I can’t be. Because deep down there’s a spot only you could fill. My heart was broken, bruised, and cold before. You stepped into my life and fucked it up some more. But now it’s like you’ve mended it. You molded it into your own. You’re to credit for that and no one else. I had never known what it was like to love someone this hard. I never knew what it was like to feel beautiful. I didn’t know I was this crazy until you came along. I’ll wait for you. No matter how long it takes. You’re always going to be my first true love.

You deserve so much in life and I think I did nothing but hold you back from your true potential. I was selfish, in all the wrong ways. But love isn’t selfish. It’s not jealous or spiteful. We were toxic for each other and I think that you were put in my life to teach me a lesson, that I am capable of loving love and giving love. I thought I found my happiness in you but that’s not how life works. That’s not how any of this works.

I don’t hate you; I hate what you did.

christopherpoetry, Façade (via wnq-writers)

[wnq-writers]

You are love, you are light You are compassion, you are strength. You are as awake as each sunrise And as beautiful as each sunset. I love you. I believe in you. Remember: stress is your motivator, Critiques are your fire, failure creates your courage, and nothing can stop you. I love you. I believe in you. Be kind. Be honest. Embrace change. Never stop learning. Trust in the universe. And be true to all that is you. I love you. I believe in you. And I will never stop.

Only you could have done that. Touched my mind before you touched my lips.

Just remember when you’re ignoring her, you’re teaching her to live without you.

We’re not something, but we’re not nothing.

i said this to myself in my head when i was inexcusably drunk one night at a party and saw this guy (of mine?) giving his hands, his heart and his admiration to someone else. i couldn’t be mad because he wasn’t mine, but he also wasn’t hers either (via floricawild)

this is everything

Self care isn’t always pretty , it’s not always candles and a bathtub full of roses , sometimes it’s forcing yourself to get out of bed and dragging yourself , sometimes it’s the pep talk you give to yourself or the quick cry in the corner . sometimes it is convincing yourself to do all these things you should be doing but you have no will whatsoever , sometimes it’s cutting some ties no matter how precious they were , sometimes it’s the bitter medicine you need to give yourself . Self care isn’t always pretty but it’s so worth it .

1. Go to a party and stay sober. Listen to the way your drunk classmates talk when they don’t plan to remember tonight when they wake up. Never talk about these experiences, just keep them for yourself. 2. Start driving in one direction on the highway after school one day, pretending like you’re running away. Blast bad pop music and sing along. Stop in the suburbs when your mom calls you to come home, but buy your little brother a cupcake before you turn back around. 3. Kiss your best friend. It doesn’t matter what sexuality or gender you are or they are. It doesn’t matter if it’s a peck or you escalate to tongue. You’ll laugh about it later, but it will always make you smile just for the memory. 4. Smoke a cigarette. Let it burn your throat. Cough, loudly. 5. Take a stand for something you believe in. When half your school laughs at you, take it with pride. Someone agrees, even if they’re too scared to say so. 6. Make enemies. Make the kind of mistakes that cause your life to implode. Lose everyone and everything to these mistakes. Only when you fall will you find out that you can pick yourself back up. 7. Sit on someone’s roof and talk for hours. Forget about dinner and tell your origin stories. Let your guard down while the dog barks below. Talk about god. Listen. 8. Steal Bourbon from your parents’ liquor cabinet and put it in a water bottle beneath your bathroom sink. Spike your tea with it when you think you’ve hit rock bottom. Pour the whole thing down the drain when it’s too strong for you. 9. Become a stereotype. Buy a record player and combat boots. Wear all black. Dye your hair bright blue and get your ear pierced three times. Don’t care when people laugh at you. 10. Make wishes at 11:11. Wear your pajamas backwards in the hopes of a snow day. Look for answers at the bottom of a bottle. Pretend writing things on your arms makes you special. Believe in anything. Believe in everything. Open every book and look around every corner. You’ll never look like this or move like this or think like this again. Enjoy it while it lasts or hate every second. But feel. Feel every damn thing.

i miss you, in a “my friends are all laughing, and so am i, but somehow you still haven’t left my mind” kind of way. i miss you, and not in a “someone asked me how you were today and i realized i didn’t know the answer” kind of way. i miss you, in a “nobody has brought up your name in months, but i still tell stories about you” kind of way. i miss you, and not in a “it’s valentines day and i’m alone” kind of way. i miss you, in a “you did well on a test and i want to be the first person you tell” kind of way.

i miss you everyday (via californhia)

[buurntsouls]

You know, I can never really remember anything. Birthdays, names and addresses are all as foreign to me as the concept of still calling you mine. I can’t ever remember a single damn thing, but I don’t think I’ll be able to forget you. Not if I tried, not even if I didn’t.

I could honestly bet that if you ask anyone what their biggest fear is in a relationship, is that it would be the past repeating itself. Someone once told you “You don’t make me happy anymore.” so you’re constantly wondering if you’re making the person you’re with now happy. Someone once cheated on you and now you can’t stop thinking about that random person you saw comment on their picture or in the back of a snapchat. Someone once abused you and now you flinch any time they come at you just a little too quickly. Someone once told you that you were nothing without them, so you cling to the person you’re with because you feel you’d be nothing if they ever left you. Someone once walked away and never gave you a reason and now it’s been 2 hours and you’re freaking out because they haven’t responded. The truth is, our past will never repeat itself. Things may happen to us that are incredibly similar, but all things are a lesson. Our pasts were meant to teach us, guide us, and shape us into the person that we are truly supposed to be. So maybe you’re afraid of many things, but don’t let those many things ruin something great that might be sitting right in front of you. Your horrible past is NEVER going to be worth losing an incredible future.

I wish I could have stayed in your life, but I was too much and not enough at the same time.

I hope you’re upset though. // p.s (via purosungki)
