Graceful Down the Stairs

The best kiss is the one that has been exchanged a thousand times between the eyes before it reaches the lips.

It never felt like I loved you. It always felt like I was trying to.

You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.

I want to stop running away from everything. I want to find something to run toward.

Fall in love with someone who’s comfortable with your silence. Find someone who doesn’t need your words to know it’s time to kiss you.

The Devil is real. And he’s not a little red man with horns and a tail. He can be beautiful. ‘Cause he’s a fallen angel, and he used to be God’s favorite.

I am the sea and nobody owns me.

Find someone who makes you feel drunk when you’re sober.

The naked truth is always better than someone’s best dressed lie.

The worst distance between two people is misunderstanding.

I used to dislike being sensitive. I thought it made me weak. But take away that single trait, and you take away the very essence of who I am. You take away my conscience, my ability to empathize, my intuition, my creativity, my deep appreciation of the little things, my vivid inner life, my keen awareness to others pain and my passion for it all.

Wing your eyeliner. Paint your nails black. Chin up. You got this. You fucking own this.

One day you’ll wake up and you’ll realize I was worth it.
