“If You Knew How Hard It Was, And How Long It Took, To Rebuild My Little Universe Of Peace And Happiness

A jaded soul

A childish heart

It feels like I

Am breaking apart

Seeing you

far far away

unreachable

but still so close.

“Love hinders death. Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.”

— LEO TOLSTOI, War and Peace

“The fact that someone else loves you doesn’t rescue you from the project of loving yourself.”

— Sahaj Kohli

“What’s most important in a friendship? Tolerance and loyalty.”

— J.K. Rowling

“Growing Around Grief”

Lois Tonkin, 1996

drowning in thoughts

but words full of desert

why am i cold

but burning away?

“You don’t deserve someone who comes back, you deserve someone who never leaves.”

— Unknown

“I am going to marry somebody that makes me feel like a poem.”

— Lee Smith, Fair and Tender Ladies

Baby, I got a fever

I'm not feeling too well

I'm so under the weather

I'm so under your spell
