The Wind

speak up

[latticeaandriano]

You Were There

Don't be alarmed

No don't be concerned

I don't want to change things

Leaving just as they were

I mean nothing's really different

It's me who feels strange

I'm always lost for words

When someone mentions your name

I know I'll get over this for sure

Can I take your smile home with me?

Or the magic in your hands

The rain has stopped

The storm has passed

Look at all the colors

Now the sun's here and there

I suppose that you'd be leaving

But I want you to know

Part of you stays with me

Even after you go

[latticeaandriano]

Dear self,

Stop pleasing everyone and just be yourself!!! Be true to who you are.

Just one of the many nights that I think about what my mission in life is

I remembered a post I read on Twitter. Here it goes:

“Every second in your life is once in a lifetime.”

It sucks that I keep on getting sick. I've been wanting to exercise for weeks now. 😢

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.

Outcome is not in your control. What’s in your control is your effort and your intentions.

Don’t waste time worrying about what you can’t control.

Why am I always afraid to dream great things? Why am I always afraid of failure? Why? This is depressing, ugh.
