A flower that refuses to bloom robs the world of its beauty.

And some of the brightest flowers bloomed in solitude.

"It's March. I open the window and spring floats in, kisses me on the nose. I have waited so long — and now the Sun is washing the world in yellow, and now the seeds sprout green in the dirt, and now the trees are budding and ready to bloom — and it was all so worth it."

– Schuyler Peck, Worth the Wait

Pretend

As the words slid off my pen

I knew right then I didn’t want to do this again

I’ve stripped myself far and thin

Just to be loved again

But I won’t let this make me begin again

Because back then I would have let you penetrate my skin

But now I won’t let you win

Here we are at the bottom. Almost empty. It's like confetti, these dried remnants you find in the street for a party no one invited you to. But they used to be, I can admit, part of something beautiful.

— Daniel Handler, Why We Broke Up

"... give me back that lovely solitude, that enchanted obscurity, those warm shimmering mornings of light and colour, those hours of dreaming in hot scented fields of oxalis and gladioli and asphodel!"

~ Vera Brittain, Testament of Youth (1933)

A rose, no matter how beautiful, still has to contend with thorns.

For the ink is the same each day - but the words are blooming in colours  no one has ever seen;  for my words are flowers,  and your love is a garden.

Phool tumhe bheja hai khat mein

Phool nahi, mera dil hai

Priyatama mere, mujhko likhna

Kya yeh tumhare kaabil hai
