Someone can be madly in love with you and still not be ready. They can love you in a way you have never been loved and still not join you on the bridge. And whatever their reasons you must leave. Because you never ever have to inspire anyone to meet you on the bridge. You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready. There is more extraordinary love, more love that you have never seen, out here in this wide and wild universe. And there is the love that will be ready.

mmmm okay but what if I don't want to play it cool? I like you very much and I'm sure the whole point of this is that you are supposed to know it yes?
Emily Dickinson, in a letter to Louise and Frances Norcross (Letter 225), September 1860
“All of us fight hidden, silent battles against not being good enough, not having enough and not belonging enough.”
— Brené Brown
Dear march, come in! How glad I am! I hoped for you before. Put down your hat – you must have walked – how out of breath you are! dear march, how are you? and the rest? Did you leave nature well? Oh march, come right upstairs with me, I have so much to tell.
Emily Dickinson
no offense but can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars oh i could really use a wish right now wish right now wish right now
All of our bookmarked hearts
stay silent, tucked away within
the pages and resting, content
with all the words that cradle, soft.
