Love this

I say no worries a lot for someone who worries 101% of the time

Everything disappears around me;

the voices soften as if everyone is speaking in hushed tones;

the glare of the lights dim;

I suddenly forget that I am an awkward girl with an awkward body in a place I’ve never been before

This all happens the moment you lock eyes with me.

I’ve always thought that some people meet at the wrong time in their lives only to be destined to see each again in passing at a coffee shop.

I did not imagine this would happen to me.

I did not imagine this would happen to me in a bar at 1 am.

I did not imagine this would happen with you.

I’ve never felt anything so electric as I have sitting next to you again.

Five years can change two people and I have tied no weights to my ankles.

Five years can change two people and the ways time has changed me have only made me better.

Five years can change two people and I want to sit for hours to know how they have changed you.

You were a pleasant surprise and I hope that I was, too.

In my mind it’s 5 am and we’re thinking about each other but neither of us know it. In my mind you’re missing me because we left too many things unsaid, because I never got to really wrap my arms around your neck and kiss your face and say I was thankful for everything I ever felt for you. In my mind we are walking alongside the pavement on opposite sides of the road and you are so close, but not close enough. And I’m yelling at you, I’m saying ‘hi, hey, remember me?’ but you have your arm around the waist of somebody else. In my mind you’re running, I can see the blur, the flash of your person running towards me. But, when you arrive, I am not the one whose face you are touching. I am not the one whose air you are breathing. I am not the one and the truth is you left me behind a long time ago. The truth is you are here; always, constantly, irrepressibly here. And the truth is, this - all of this, has to be worth something. Right? Tell me I’m not the only one with this on my mind.

You rain on me - I sky you. I hand you my universe and you live in me. It is you whom I love today. I love you with all my loves.

Perhaps the problem is not the intensity of your love but the quality of the people you are loving.

Independence is important, but your happiness is just as much determined by you as it is by the people you surround yourself with. So be independent but choose your company wisely.

I hope you’re happy. What I mean to say is, I hope you laugh at least five times a day. No no no, what I really mean is, I hope you’ve learnt to be gently sad, the kind where things hurt but not so much that you want to die. I hope you don’t hold onto happiness so tightly that it aches because you’re scared it’ll go away. I hope you have enough of it in a jar, a little glass container that you can open on a rainy day. I hope the sun warms your face and you have been free of thunderstorms for a while. I hope you feel lucky because fortune is a mindset, not a reality. I hope the girl you meet next week or in two months knows that you wanted to be a pilot when you were five. I hope she asks about your mother, who brought you up on her own, and I hope she really cares. Well, I hope you fall asleep dreaming of happy things. I hope no mountain is too tall; no ocean too vast for you to traverse. I hope you are brave and filled with so much courage that you might stand up to time and space and say “you don’t control me.
