“I wish you the best in making a mess out of all that you’ve had to unlearn. In finding your power or planting a flower for every last bridge that you’ve burned.” ~Dallas Clayton

After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
And company doesn’t mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts
And presents aren’t promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes open
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads on today
Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans
And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After a while you learn…
That even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your garden and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure…
That you really are strong
And you really do have worth…
And you learn and learn…
With every good-bye you learn.
Jorge Luis Borges, “You Learn”
(via wordsnquotes)

everyone likes comparing love to planets
and space
and the sky and the stars
so here’s one for us
she said we were like parallel lines,
the dictionary defines that as 2 lines that are always the same distance apart and never touch.
she says we are parallel lines for
we are so similar
we are
on the same wavelength
always on the same page
I know exactly what she means
I always know exactly what she means the second the words leave her lips
I know what every change of tone means
every look and every touch
I know
she says we’re the sun and the moon
I like to think that she’s the sun and I’m the moon-
she says we’re on the same wavelength
always on the same page
but we’ve got dreams
they take place on different edges of the world
she says parallel lines leave a bitter taste in her mouth
and shit now it does in mine too because
we were so perfect together
and I hate using flowery language but
that’s the only word I have ,
we are perfect,
but as the dictionary has reminded me,
we are never going to meet, and as my love has says,
we’re the sun and the moon
we’ll always be chasing each other but-
i think we’re like the sun and the moon,
but not for the same reasons she does
I mean
we aren’t meant to be,
some would say,
the timing wasn’t right,
we couldn’t be one,
we couldn’t be an us,
but baby,
don’t you see?
you are my sun and I’m your moon
and right now,
for the little time we have,
I am holding your hand
and you are holding me and
we are one
we are an us
and we are together,
and look at how the world is coming to a standstill
because baby,
we are stupidity, four-year-old behavior, and unadulterated love,
we are giggles and cuddles and comebacks,
we are the most beautiful thing I have ever experienced,
we are warmth, happiness, and butterflies,
we are us,
even if it’s for a few seconds.
Eclipse; Masumi Atul Parmar (via wnq-writers)

I love being horribly straightforward. I love sending reckless text messages (because how reckless can a form of digitized communication be?) and telling people I love them and telling people they are absolutely magical humans and I cannot believe they really exist. I love saying, Kiss me harder, and You’re a good person, and, You brighten my day. I live my life as straight-forward as possible.
Because one day, I might get hit by a bus.
Maybe it’s weird. Maybe it’s scary. Maybe it seems downright impossible to just be—to just let people know you want them, need them, feel like, in this very moment, you will die if you do not see them, hold them, touch them in some way whether its your feet on their thighs on the couch or your tongue in their mouth or your heart in their hands.
But there is nothing more beautiful than being desperate.
And there is nothing more risky than pretending not to care.
We are young and we are human and we are beautiful and we are not as in control as we think we are. We never know who needs us back. We never know the magic that can arise between ourselves and other humans.
We never know when the bus is coming.

But people do. They love each other and they misunderstand on purpose and they fight and then suddenly they aren’t the same one.
