“I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.”

— Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

Do you know how moths often find their way into things they can’t seem to escape?

They slip through gaps and cracks in the glass of lanterns, drawn to the light.

But once they realize they’ve been trapped by their own trust in the world, they will violently throw their fragile bodies against the glass, over and over, until they break?

I am a moth,

I was the moth.

— J.

I thought no one could  love my true self until I realized I did not know myself yet.

“I feel like I’m living day by day again. I guess that’s okay. But for awhile there, I was living for the future. Fueled at full speed ahead and headed toward a flashy finish line. Now I go to bed and all I can see is another day, another week, another month full of days. I’m okay. But I want to be more than that. I want to chase the stars again.”

— Day by Day, V.P.

First love, oh where did we go wrong?

You have always been my comfort.

Tell me how am I to find comfort now that you are gone?

I'm trying to remember the nights that I didn't cry myself to sleep.

And I'm trying to keep hoping that someday it'll be that way again.

But right now that feels so far away and I'm having trouble finding my peace.

I slept soundly through the night knowing that you were a part of me.

Now you're gone and you've taken a piece of me with you;

And I'll never be whole again, but at least I know that part of me will be with you forever.

-a.b

[soft-ramblings-blog]

I breathe you in,

Drink you up,

I hold your existence in my soul.

We are one and the same

And I wouldn't have it

Any other way.

Your soul is the whole world.

“here we are doing nothing more than sitting. glancing over at you, feeling secure. you’re my person. you’re my future, my soulmate. glancing over at you, feeling loved. i cannot help but to stare. pardon me, for i’m trying my best to look away. it’s difficult because i’m so in love with you.”
