The woods are lovely dark & deep

“What keeps my heart awake is colorful silence.”

“Life advice: Always be the best person you can be. Be kind even when you’re tired. Be understanding even when you’re angry. Do more than you’re asked, and don’t ask for anything in return. Don’t silently expect anything either. Listen when someone talks, and really listen too, stop just thinking of how you’ll reply. Tell people that you love them and that you appreciate them. Go out of your way to do things for people. Be the greatest person you can possibly be and when you mess up, make up for it in the next moment or minute or day. One thing you should never do? Never spend your time trying to prove to anybody that you’re great, your actions will speak for themselves and we only have limited time on this earth, don’t waste it. If someone doesn’t see your light, don’t worry. Like moths, good people are attracted to flame and to light, and they will come.”

“The truth was I was tired way underneath my skin. I was tired where even I couldn’t see. I do not know how that happened. How I ended up like that. It all happened so fast.”

“You breathed harbor and stars into my body. You pressed flushed fervor upon my skin. You swam with me into my seas of darkness. That I could never entomb. You entombed them with a kiss.”

“Dear Life, I am slowly falling in love with you again”

“I have been staying awake at nights, wondering if I should tell you.”

“Maybe one day we’ll find that place, where you and I could be together and we’ll catch our dreams within the waves of change. So hear me, you are not alone.”

“We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.”

“I really don’t care about what anyone thinks of me. I am who I am, I do what I want & I don’t live to please you.”

“…think sea, wind, thunder, root, think tree that will hold you / up, imagine it holding you / up, choose to be who you are, quick choose it,”

“I always look well when I’m near death.”
