Dark thoughts pass through me and some days they try to hang on; other days I barely notice them. When you’re a survivor, no two days are the same. Whether you’ve contemplated, attempted or just struggle, you are a living, breathing survivor.

“Run a bath so hot, it’ll melt off my disguise Pour me a tub-sized ocean to soak in Run your house-key fingers over my bitten lips And find out what doors they’ll open Seeing you perched on the edge reminds me I know More about the dirty water than I do about you The room is silent except for the dripping faucet Under the harsh fluorescents we’re both blind There is no room for trust between us Something so heavy would scare away your smile Sinking into the boiling water leaves me cold with truth I feel closer to the tiles than I do to you”

“Loving a strong, independent woman is not for the faint of heart… You need to be self-assured and confident in your own masculinity because she will not fawn over you to give you constant gratification or cry down the phone to you begging to see you because she misses you… She is not the type to ask for your help or advice on how best to do something, so if you’re in love your own opinions and the sound of your own voice then this isn’t the woman for you. She is spirited and confident and will embark upon projects and adventures without consulting you; you can either tag along for the ride or not, it makes no difference to her. So if you need to be in control of every decision in a relationship it’s best you call it quits now… She’s not a perfectionist or a control freak, in fact you’ll find her both reasonable and forgiving - but she’s also nobody’s fool so if repeating the same behavior and apologizing every time is the most amount of effort you’re willing to put into the relationship she won’t keep you around very long… But the joy in loving a strong independent woman is knowing that if she chooses you it’s because she loves you – NOT because she needs you. A woman like that learned to rely on herself and stop needing people a long time ago so if she’s with you it’s because she admires and respects you for who you are as a person and not for what you can offer her. If you’re a man who can truly handle being a woman’s equal… then you just might be man enough for a woman like her….”
