Teaching myself that, it is right because I choose it. It may change, but it is right in this moment.

[dewdropdaydream]

I’ve always been superstitious, or spiritual or open minded, or whatever you want to call it. I think, not necessarily, that things happen for a reason, but that things happen and we make meaning from them. But this is not fate or divine intervention or chance. I willed this. I knit the threads of fate myself until they spelled your name. I love you intentionally. I choose you, relentlessly. I love you with every bit of conscience that I was born with.

My whole soul is for you

[everydaylouie]

one who knows you

[dewdropdaydream]

I think I’ve always been able to tell early on when I’ll love someone. I sense the onset of emotions I’ll feel for this person from such a young stage in the relationship, platonic or romantic. Gosh.

his laugh is my favorite song. I play the notes over and over again in my head, the way he smiles, the way he looks at me, the way my hand fits into his. the way he kisses me is a movie scene that I replay over and over just to feel that feeling longer

[dewdropdaydream]

Thinking about first love and how I’ll always keep space for him in my life but I’ll never be with him again. How we saw each other and knew, at such a young age. It was so soulful. We’ve been in contact for years, and I think we will be forever, sometimes

I'm tired of wanting more

I think I'm finally worn

For you have a way of promising things
