“ The way we feel about someone is not controllable. You cannot change the way you feel about someone. You cannot hide your feelings from yourself. What you feel is a part of who you are. To share yourself with someone who makes your feelings run wild can be fearful. It takes real courage to express your feelings in hopes for the best. Be courageous! Follow your feelings! Some nights it will hurt, and some days you may question yourself. But with each passing moment you spend accepting yourself and sharing who you are, you near the one who will accept you as a whole. Out there, somewhere, is someone waiting. Someone who truly understands and appreciates you and your feelings. For you, I hope that someone is me.

“ Something inside is hurting you – that’s why you need cigarettes or whiskey, or music turned so fucking loud you can’t think.

“

when i find myself on edge
in the wee hours of the night,
restless, unable to sleep,
i ache for you.

but instead of sadness,
and longing and yearning,
i simply close my eyes
and find solace in your memory.

i envision your face,
your smile,
your laugh,
your lips. 

i imagine your arms around me,
your hands gently rubbing my stomach
in an attempt to calm the storm
inside of me.

“ If you look into your girls eyes and you just see color, y'all don’t belong together

“ I can never be good enough and I’m so fucking sorry.
