This is to prose and poetry and those with tender hearts

All roads lead to the same blocked intersection
-“Sax Rohmer #1” by the Mountain Goats

Can you imagine what it feels like to have someone sit you down and tell you that you're dying? The gravity of that, hmm? Then the clock's ticking for you. In a split second your awe is cracked open. You look at things differently - smell things differently. You savor everything be it a glass of water or a walk in the park. But most people have the luxury of not knowing when that clock's going to go off. And the irony of it is that that keeps them from really living their life. It keeps them drinking that glass of water but never really tasting it. - Saw 2

be like a river.
they always go forward and never go backwards.
therefore, do not let your past determine your future

what is it you want, mary? what do you want?
you want the moon? just say the word and i'll
throw a lasso around it and pull it down. hey. that's
a pretty good idea. i'll give you the moon, mary."
-It's a Wonderful Life

some poems dont rhyme,
& some stories dont have a clear
beginning, middle, and end.
life is about not knowing,
having to change,
taking the moment
& making the best of it,
without knowing whats
going to happen next.

It may seem like the wrong thing to do;
but you have to forget about the guy
who forgot about you.

Every girl needs a best friend to help
her laugh, when she thinks she'll
never smile again

If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you. And I never wish to be parted from you from this day on. -Pride & Prejudice

Words are words, and whats said is said
-wicked

She was the girl who dreamed, who saw things how they were but never really let it get in the way of her wishful thinking. She laughed and cried. She lived life to the fullest; with no intentions of ever turning back or regretting anything.

"It was becoming clear to me that I shouldn't bother to get too attached to anything.Turn your back and you lose it. Just like that."  -The Truth About Forever

Hard to breathe,
feels like floating
So full of love ,
my heart's e x p l o d i n g
Mouth is dry,
hands are shaking
My heart is yours,
for the taking
Acting weird,
not myself
Dancing around,
like the Keebler elf
Finally time,
for this poor shlub.
To know how it feels,
to fall in lub .
-Mr. Deeds.

So its been nearly 5 months and I'm getting stronger by the second because every breath I take is just another that  proves I don't need you to survive.

Here's my philosophy on dating. It's important to have somebody that can make you laugh, somebody you can trust, somebody that, you know, turns you on. And it's really, really important that these three people don't know each other.
-Brooke Davis

Looking back at that one summer, that one moment, I should’ve known that nothing good could have come of it; that one boy, that one stolen kiss. However, I was a young and stupid and I never expected for things to happen the way they did. But they did happen that way, and shit hit the fan and things changed and people weren’t the same, promises were broken and I was different. But that’s okay because in June, I didn’t really know who I was. But come September, I knew who I was, what I liked and didn’t like, and I found myself. All because of that one wrong turn.

“Love cannot accept what it is. Everywhere on earth it cries out against kindness, compassion, intelligence, everything that leads to compromise. Love demands the impossible, the absolute, the sky on fire, inexhaustible springtime, life after death, and death itself transfigured into eternal life.” – Albert Camus

Rock bottom is a beautiful place to start.

This is to wanting to speak the most honest words you've ever spoken

Enjoy yourself.  These are the good old days you’re going to miss in the years ahead.

Unless it's mad, passionate, extraordinary love, It's a waste of your time. There are too many mediocre things in life Love shouldn't be one of them.
-Dream for an Insomniac

You'll meet her, she's very pretty, even though sometimes she's sad for many days at a time.
You'll see, when she smiles, you'll love her.
-Pan's Labyrinth

It's funny how one summer can change everything.
it must be something about the heat and the smell of chlorine, fresh-cut grass and honeysuckle,
asphalt sizzling after late-day thunderstorms,
the steam rising while everything drips around it.
something about long, lazy days and whirring air conditioners
and bright plastic flip-flops from the drugstore thwacking down the street.
something about fall being so close; another year,
another christmas, another beginning.
so much in one summer,
stirring up like the storms that crest at the end of each day,
blowing out all the heatand dirt to leave everything gasping and cool.
everyone can reach back to one summer and lay a finger to it,
finding the exact point when everything changes.
that summer was mine.

We just want to be where we're supposed to be," she says. "We just want to be with the people we want to be with. I don't think that's asking too much.

We all die.
The goal isn't to live forever.
Its to create something that will

For everything that you
have missed you have
gained something else.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

if i want to fly, i'll find a way to fly. you do what you love, and fuck all the rest

[Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope]

"Oh, she says well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is, we're here on Earth to fart around. And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And, we're not supposed to dance at all anymore. "
-Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

Alice: "This is impossible."

The Mad Hatter: "Only if you believe it is."

"First they ignore you. then they laugh at you. then they fight you. then you win."
-Gandhi

"I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not f*ck like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane.."
- John Green, Looking For Alaska

One morning you'll wake up and you'll think, 'how did i get here?'. you'll inhale a long drag of smoke through your lungs, and before you can exhale, pictures from your life pop into your head. Behind each picture lies a story. the first picture you see will make you smile. The image will remind you of a time when you were happy. Actually happy. the kind of happy that makes you jumble your words, the kind of happy that makes your insides twist, the kind of happy that makes you use the word 'forever.' the next image that pops up shows you your lowest low. the kind of low that told you to slit your wrists, the kind of low that makes you pull your hair and scream, the kind of low that never wants to know how long forever is. Then you'll look around you and you won’t know whether to laugh or to cry. And you'll think 'I’ve loved and I’ve hated' and you'll realize that you wouldn’t have to hate if you never knew love.

there's too many things i haven't done yet, too many sunsets i haven't seen.

The first thing we did in kindergarten was;
we were shown a picture of an apple and
two oranges, then we were supposed to pick
out which ones didn't belong. The first thing we
were taught was that being different is wrong.

 And it starts sometime around midnight. At least that's when I loose myself for a minute or two.
-Sometime Around Midnight by The Airbone Toxic Event

I believe in everything until it's disproved.
So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons.
It all exists, even if it's in your mind.
Who's to say that dreams and nightmares
aren't as real as the here and now?

you know me too well.
when i said i didn't love you,
you looked at me and said,
"bullshit, you're just running away."

you know what i like most about the stars?
you look at them,
at all of them up there,
and you just know there's gotta be
something more.

when you stop fighting, you stop living.
we all need that thing that's worth fighting for.
maybe its a certain someone or a special place,
 or maybe just an idea. so find your fight and
fight like hell until your battle is won.

i walk around the school hallways and look at the people. i look at the teachers and wonder why they're

here. if they like their jobs. or us. and i wonder how smart they were when they were 15. not in a mean way. in a curious way. it's like looking at all the students and wondering who's had their heart broken that day and how they are able to cope with having three quizzes and a book report on top of that. or wondering who did the heartbreaking. and wondering why.

Yes, cameras are tools designed to capture images. But in truth, they can capture so much more. They can uncover hidden longing of men who should no longer care. They can reveal the extraordinary secrets of the most ordinary marriages. Most amazing of all, cameras can quietly and clearly reveal to us our dreams. Dreams we didn't even know we had."

-Desperate Housewives

The question, how does a girl who jumps into a rabbit hole plummeting into chaos come out unchanged? The answer- she doesn't. --little black book

It's those moments when you drive around in a car full of friends around a town too small for you, where you gasp for breath between each laugh. it's those moments where you get high off just breathing in so deep, you feel your lungs getting cold. for a second, that split second, you don't care. you don't care about school, about parents, about money, about rules, or broken hearts. who you care about are the kids sitting next to you. cause it's all we really need, isn't it? those kids next to you. yeah, the ones who make you feel invincible, even at your weakest points.

she'll break into bits of star and throw herself against the sky

This is for those who fall in love in their dreams

 Slow down, you're doing fine.
You can't be everything you want
to be, before your time.
-Vienna, Billy Joel

I want to be the girl that changed everything.
The girl that made a difference in the world.
The one who gave you a story to tell.

every now and then, you wake up to a day that affects your whole life, the day in your life when you know you'll never be the same, the that changes the way you think about everything and everyone.

Bottom line is that the couples that are truly right for each other
wade through the same crap as everyone else. But the big
difference is they don't let it take them down. One of those two
people will stand up and fight for that relationship everytime.
If it's right, and if they're real lucky, one of them will say something.

The trouble with a city is that if you leave,
it doesn't miss you. You're totally dispensable.
It doesn't even notice you're gone.

Stop talking about love. Every asshole in the world says he loves somebody.
It means nothing. It still doesn't mean anything. What you feel only matters to you.
It's what you do to the people you say you love, that's what matters. It's the only thing that counts.

One day, you'll wake up and realize that she really is the best thing you'll ever have, and she'll be waking up next to the one who already knew.

It took alot for me to open up to you. I don't usually do that often, and I did it for you.
Now, all that just got shoved back into my face, and I realized why I never opened up in the first place.

The moon.
You don't normally think about it
and it doesn't really serve a purpose.
But still, from time to time, you look up at it.
And it makes you feel better.

It's the magic of risking everything for
a dream that nobody sees but you.

you know me too well.
when i said i didn't love you,
you looked at me and said
"bullshit, you're just running away"

Every single person has at least one secret that would break your heart.
If we could just remember this, I think there would be a lot more compassion and tolerance in the world

Courage is the art of being the only one
who knows you're scared to death.

we wonder why black and white photos capture our soul.
I think it's because without color,
we aren't drawn to the makeup and color of our eyes,
or our hair,
or how tan our skin is.
black and white captures the innocence on one's face
and the hurt they've gone through to feel vulnerability.
the glow we see comes from inside,
brightening our eyes,
our skin, and our smile.
it grabs the truth that liberates us

The unreal is more powerful than
the real, because nothing is as
perfect as you can imagine it,
because its only intangible ideas,
concepts, beliefs, fantasies that
last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots.
People, well, they die. But things
as fragile as a thought, a dream,
a legend, they can go on and on

you wanted it, don't lie to me.

peace :]

"If the scilence takes you then I hope it takes me too"
-Soul Meets Body by Death Cab for Cutie

There is an inner beauty about a woman who believes in herself,

who knows she is capable of anything

she puts her mind to. There is a beauty

in the strength and determination

of a woman who follows her own path,

who isn't thrown off by obstacles along the way.

There is a beauty about a woman whose confidence

comes from experiences - who knows she can fall,

pick herself up, and go on.

A little sincerity is a dangerous thing and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal
-Oscar Wilde

he begins to open up to her and tell her all his secrets,
even the fact that he gets three hours a sleep every night
or the fact he wakes up every morning
not being able to wait to here her sweet voice,
she looks at him and she says "sounds like you're falling
in love with me" and he was speechless like a kid who
just got caught stealing from a cookie jar, he nods and
says "yeah, i guess i am"

“Any guy can sweep any girl off her feet, he just

needs the right broom.” – ALEX HITCHENS <3

true friendship isn't about being there when it's convenient; sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.

I want you to understand something.
as far as I can tell, this friendship is over and if
we never speak again for the rest of our lives,
that'll be fine.

I told you, Ellen. When he went away that night in the rain, I told you I belonged to him, that he was my life, my being.

-Wuthering Heights

Not all of us can afford to be romantic.

-Pride and Predijudice

Don't be flattered that he misses you.  He should miss you.  You're deeply missable.  However, he's still the same person who just broke up with you.  Remember, the only reason he can miss you is because he's choosing, every day, not to be with you.

-He's Just Not That Into You

I want more than anything for us to be together. But not like this. Not screaming at the top of our lungs about things that happened 4 years ago

 You can say good-bye next time you say hello.

Maybe we're lying here because you don't wanna be standing somewhere else.

You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view--until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.

more comfortable

What we see mainly depends on what we look for.

You're my exception.
