You deserve happiness. So I left.
She chased clouds hoping for rainbows.
Laughter long ago swallowed by shadows.
Do not laugh. We need dreamers.
Smoldering ashes. You stole my fire.
(These are all from the same blog and author)
(These are just random finds on Tumblr)
I miss how you wanted me.
You are somebody. Not some body.
The people you love become ghosts.
I discovered myself while discovering you.
Someone loving you doesn't fix you.
We all die with unanswered questions.
Under your finger tips, I matter.
Eye contact: how souls catch fire.
There are no winners, only survivors.
Hearts grow heavy with the sea.
But with you, it was different.
And finally, a Margaret Atwood quote: "There are mountains inside your skull," which comes from the longer quote:
(maybe without speaking)
(there are mountains
inside your skull
garden and chaos, ocean
and hurricane; certain
corners of rooms, portraits
of great-grandmothers, curtains
of a particular shade;
your deserts; your private
dinosaurs; the first
woman)
all I need to know:
tell me
everything
just as it was
from the beginning.
