careful hearts

will suffer

all their lives

from careless actions

- always

there's no use

wishing for things

you never get

for sure

there's no use

wishing for things

that were

and will never

be yours

there's no use

wishing for things

that people

will break

at some point

i see little interest

in wishing for those things

but as i lay in bed

2 am

i am wishing

for you

to read these words

and know

that even if

you see no use

even if this year

has torn you apart

your wishes

and hopes

keep you standing

if there is one thing

that means everything

to you

it will always be important

to believe in it

the truth is

love can be found

hope can be found

anywhere

for they are not

things

that come and go

they are everywhere

in everything

there are just moments

where you can see them

clearly

does not mean

they were not there

all along

darkness can be appealing and easy to fall for it attracts and may looks like freedom but trust me darkness is sad and lonely darkness decomposes the heart and deteriorates the mind darkness is no solution nor salvation darkness does not cure it just absorbs and absorbs until there’s nothing left and never gives the things you’ve lost back

the people you surround your life with are an important part of what the world feels like you cannot see how the sun shines or how the flowers bloom if there’s always negative people around you what life gives you are choices choose the people who give you joy choose the people who bring love to this world l.l

i would give everything for love not that i depend on it if i do, will all depend on it because love makes us feel alive and if we don’t have it we’re hollow we’re just voids we only absorb things and never give them back yes, i would give everything because it is everything it is everywhere in all things it’s in the sky, in the earth, in the trees in the rivers, in the stars, in the cities in the silence, in the deep wide ocean, in you

1. pain does not define you or even matters at the end of the day what matters is what you make of it if you work with your fears if you work with the things that hurt you you’re stronger than all of this you’ve got to accept you will never beat them they can only be tamed your strength and courage can only speak louder they can not shut them up

maybe love is more than a sad song maybe we deserve more than this maybe we deserve to know what pure happiness with someone you love feels like maybe sometimes that is all we need knowing that love is not only hearts breaking and sad endings that it can be wonderful that we can find it that indeed we will someday
