Society convinces us that being weak and expressing vulnerabilities is a bad thing. It’s really not.

I learned long ago that when you fall in love, you don’t just stop the moment they walk away.

While she can logically look and realize that there was always something off, emotionally she couldn’t not give you her heart.

I got lost in my own head in Popoyo, Nicaragua. I had to sit with myself in extreme silence and pay attention to all of those disgusting thoughts I had managed to push away for so long.

I shut everyone and everything out. I don’t want to be vulnerable except the real scary thing is that I do. With you.

I could change into someone I think I need to be instead of just letting you see the real me; the real me I’ve been only with you. Or I could just shut up and kiss you.

It’s then that it’s going to make sense. Why you had to say goodbye to someone you thought you truly loved in order to meet the one you actually do.

She was always the leaving type.
