“Desire doubled is love and love doubled is madness.”

Honestly, I don’t need someone who sees the good in me. I need someone who sees the bad in me and still wants me.

I trust you without question. I love you without hesitation.

people have always told me that poetry existed in places other than the space between pen and paper but i never truly believed them, until i met you. your eyes contained the most extraordinary constellations and lit up in the most beautiful way when talking of the things you’re passionate about, your mind so complex and more potent than any drug, and your laugh, oh god your laugh could replace my obsession with the stars. something as simple as your trailing your fingertips along my collarbones causes my skin to set fire and my world to blur. through these things i realized they were completely right, poetry does exist in places other than words, poetry exists within you.

I never realised how important pain was. How without pain, there would be no joy. I went through life just wanting whatever pain I felt to end. But now I realise, I have to revel in it. Be thankful for it. But never let it win.

Love, as much as it is universal, is also personal. It’s for everyone, but not from everyone.
