I used to think this was all a fairytale. running through fields of sunshine, kissed by grace. sitting by the fire, surrounded by the warmth of another's love. up until now, these used to be things I'd dream about while chasing my own shadow. something about these nights makes it worth it.

there was another, there is another, there'll be another, and I will never be alone.

and suddenly the world got brighter, the roads were darker, the grass was greener. there was hope in the air like how the snowflakes fill the winter night sky. it feels like coming home to a lost love and finding peace in their arms. 

[magic-can-be-real]

From my very first breath to the one I take now, I have been kissed with sunshine and bound with grace. Since then, there has been a girl inside of me just waiting to become. To that girl, keep shining light on the world, keep creating, keep being you. You carry so much love within your fingertips and nothing could rip it away. You are right where you belong and I promise you, you will do so much more than just bloom.

i am the girl who became on this day.

“I'm jealous of you.”

Why, out of anyone else in the world, would you be jealous of me? I wrecked and destroyed and burned. The things I have faced will leave a permanent scar on my soul and I am wishing that the wounds don’t burst open,,, again. Tell me of the light you see in my eyes. How did we find each other, and before then, where have you been all my life? // ais

you and I will constantly be walking that beach. for the first time, I saw the same sky from that night and nothing will ever be the same. you took everything from me to save me, and in the end, did it really? I am left defenceless from this life I now have to live without you. there is no escape. how much longer until we can abandon the rules that were made to keep us bound? when can I wake up from this dream?

- a book I never finished.  // ais

as i stare at the moon, i see the marks you have left on my soul. the dew glistens off the grass as i reflect upon it, and i admire my beauty. it has been far too long since i have been at peace with myself and the darkness i bring. maybe it's time to start again.

if i could wish for one thing, i would wish for you, for you are my wish.

the love who completes me. // ais

I want to collapse

drowning in the ocean that is you.

[magic-can-be-real]

i met you in a dream and i wish i could write you back into my life, but my hand aches and cries in pain from the lines i have written, desperately trying to forget you, drowning myself in a love i don't know how to love. i have tried and tried to let you go but no matter what i do i cant let go of the last thread that always connected us together. as i hold tight at the chain around my neck i remember what we were and what we could have been but i will never know if that is what you really wanted. you wanted to grow. you wanted to leave me, surrounded by the dirt of my past and forgetting me there like a spect of dust all of my heroes have turned in to as they claimed they were saving me. all i wanted to do was change. i wanted to be different. but you kept changing before i could settle myself. it got to the point where i wasn't you and you weren't me. i sent you away in hopes to find myself but all that did was made me forget who i really was.

maybe i met you in a dream, maybe you are gone, but i won't be me until i write you back into my story i'm still trying to plan. i called you my best friend in hopes to love myself. i shared my stories i disguised as your own to give me a place to escape from myself. these hands can never erase the lines i have written because those are my lines that held my dreams and that will tell the story of myself. maybe, when the time is right, i'll realize it wasn't just a dream and i won't have to wait and mourn for who i once was. i can be complete. i would be myself.

mary, did you know

everything? the sea, the sky, the ground and everything on it? the twitter of the birds and the croaks from the frogs? the breeze through the air and the sun beaming down? oh the sun, how she reminds me of you. you're at home. i can only imagine what home feels like. quiet paintings and crochet hooks. old pieces of paper tucked away with your favourite passage. homemade pizza on the 24th. the smell of smoke but with a hint of rose. how i wish to be home with you.

colour the sky

let me love you

let me show you what you have been blinded from

oh, you beautiful thing, you

if only you knew

you colour the sky each time you set. 

you may feel colourless but I’ll have you know that you spread something beyond words

there is beauty when you fall

there is hope

because we know you will rise back up, shining brighter and brighter the next day.

let us help you rise.

let us help you see you.

soon you’ll know

the words I crave to tell you

the ones that aren’t allowed to leave my lips

just yet

but don’t you worry, my love

you don’t need to wait much longer

I’m on my way

give it time.

give it love.

Please come home

It's been one year since you've been gone. I held you tight in my arms, not knowing when I could next, if I ever could again. As the tears stung at the corners of my eyes, I felt my heart rip into two. One that would stay incomplete until you returned. Please come home, the words I whispered under my breath every day as my aching heart longed for your return. Please come home, I say, as I wish upon every star waiting for you. Please come home, home to me.

You remember that magic you felt when we first met?

Locking eyes underwater, even though it burned.

We were tired, yet we kept going

We stopped

We talked

We discovered 

There is more to us that what’s on the surface

The mark we both carry bound us tight

We shared the stories we were scared to tell anyone else

They wouldn’t believe us

They never did

You are that magic spark that set me on the journey of a life time

One that has suffocated me

One that has crushed me

One that has burned me

And one that has drowned me

But here I am

Holding on with your thread as you pull me back home

// ais

[magic-can-be-real]

i'm still waiting.

i have been trained to lie

running away from myself

aching and longing to be whole again

waiting

desperately craving to be found.

being too scared to reach further than my arms allow me.

my eyes sting as the tears fall

drowning myself in my own ocean

hoping it could fill me once more

but it never does

it never does.

She Tried

She tried to cry

but it hurt

and the back of her throat and it burned as she tried to clear it.

She tried to speak

but it came out broken

sounding like shattered glass being cracked over and over.

She tried to be brave

but she was scared

of herself and what she knows she can do.

She tried to move on

but it was hard

because her past would always be with her.
