365 Days A Year

kissing him felt like a chore and simply looking at you makes my breath catch in my lungs

We are a generation that romanticizes hate and heartbreak so much. Truth is, I don’t think I could hate him as much as I love him.

True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.

He never once pulled away from her kisses for breath, because he knew that she was far more important to his survival than oxygen could ever be

Brown eyes are just brown eyes, until you love someone with brown eyes.

You’ve lost someone you thought was the love of your life and I know you think it will hurt like this forever, but I promise you it doesn’t. I’m not saying you’ll suddenly wake up one day and it’ll be like it never happened – because it won’t… There will always be a loss, there’s no if’s or but’s about that. If you lose an amazing person from your life – that leaves a hole in your heart that nobody else can ever fill… You can find happiness, you can find other people and things to fill your heart in other places… but the space that belonged to that person will always be empty. Because human beings are unique and complicated creatures, and when you combine two of them together you get a love that is just as unique and therefore irreplaceable. So don’t try to replace them because you can’t… and get out of the mindset that you’ll never love anybody as much or that no other relationship will compare to what you’ve lost. You don’t love people ‘more’ or ‘less’ than each other – you just love them differently. The way you love somebody else will be different yes – but it will not be ‘more’ or ‘less’ or ‘better’ or ‘worse’… just different… and that’s okay. You will find love again, but it’s never going to be the same love… and it’s only when you’re able to accept that and open yourself to the idea, that you’re finally ready to move on.

And I have learned that sometimes love isn’t enough. No matter how much you want it to be.
