It’s not about staying single until the right person comes along, it’s about dating, falling in love, growing, becoming, and eventually meeting that person somewhere along the way. It’s about making mistakes.

Let her bloom.

Heartbreak does not mean our love was all for nothing. We cared, we gave, and though we ended up empty, we loved. And it was real for a moment. And thus worth it, no matter the outcome.

There is nothing your sister/brother(s) can ever do to push you away.

I love the way my mind dances with thoughts of you,
imagining the curve of your lips, the slight smirk of your smile.

God, please take my problems and remind me that you are bigger than them. Please take my fears and show me there is nothing to worry about when you are by my side.

Our time, our energy, our passion, our affection is never wasted when we truly love.

This is for the girlfriends we forget to thank. The ones who have been there for us since day one and will always stand by our side, no matter what life throws in the way.

He’s comfortable, he’s what you’ve known, he’s what you want. But he’s not what you need. Because he’s a man who cannot give his full self to you; he’s a man who can’t commit.

You have my attention; every part of me comes alive when I’m with you.

Smile. Not because your life is perfect and everything is together and all your pain is healed, but because you are alive, and that is enough.

I hate that I can’t see you every day, but no matter the miles and days and hours that separate us, you are never far from me.
