“
In herself alone, she is more important than all of the hundreds of roses;
because it is she that I have watered;
because it is she that I have put under the glass globe;
because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen;
because it is for her that I killed the caterpillars;
because it is she that I have listened to, when she grumbled or boasted or even sometimes said nothing…
Because she is my rose.
” —Antoine De Saint-Exupery (via quote-book)I’m tired of everything I’m doing.
I want to escape to someplace and live another life, if only for a little while.I want adventure, passion, and excitement.
“I just want you to know that you’re the only person I want to be with. I mean… I know I push you away a times but it’s just how I cope with things. I just don’t want to lose you. We’ve talked for 6 years and I don’t want you to think that I’m just going to let it end like it’s nothing. I love you.”

“If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller’s felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn’t exist, and I have tried everything that does.”
—Jonathan Safran Foer
“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.”

“met an old lady once, almost one hundred years old, and she told me, “There are only two questions that human beings have fought over, all through history. How much do you love me? And Who’s in charge?” Everything else is somehow manageable. But these two questions of love and control undo us all, trip us up and cause war, grief and suffering.”
—Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
“Is it too late to ask you to grow old with me?”
—Catherine Holt, Fireproof

It is a lot easier to say you're mad than admit you're hurt.
“Time spent away from your friends and family is time you don’t get back.”
—October Road
“Some people never say the words ‘I love you’. It’s not their style to be so bold. Some people never say those words: ‘I love you’ But, like a child, they’re longing to be told.”
—Paul Simon
“Why do anything— why wash my hair, why read Moby Dick, why fall in love, why sit through six hours of Nicholas Nickleby, why care about American intervention in Central America, why spend time trying to get into the right schools, why dance to the music when all of us are just slouching toward the same inevitable conclusion? The shortness of life, I keep saying, makes everything seem pointless when I think about the longness of death.”
—Elizabeth Wurtzel
“We are never more discontented with others than when we are discontented with ourselves.”

I love you but you can make me really hate myself.
I love you but you can make me really frustrated.
I love you but you can make me hate life.
I love you but you make me feel like shit.
I love you because you still bring the best out of me. Like no one else can.
“Paris is always a good idea.”
—Sabrina (1954) (via fuckyeahparis) (via daniellekiemel)
“I want someone who doesn’t find it weird that I know exactly what I want from a guy, and will ask from time to time to be sure they’re still okay. Someone who can understand that sometimes I get so caught up in life, that it brings me down, so far down that it’s hard to ever get back up. Someone I won’t have to pretend with, someone who will keep everything I say between us. Someone who I can share my dreams with and shares their dreams in return, and inspires me to be a better person. Someone who doesn’t confuse my jealousy with controlling, and can understand it’s because I’m afraid of someone else falling for you. Someone who is patient, because they understand I’m not quick to open up. Someone who doesn’t walk away, despite my obstinate ways, but acknowledges that sometimes I do need a wake up call. Someone who wants me to talk just so they can remember my voice for later when they miss it. Someone who isn’t afraid and is positive it will last, someone who wants me to be happy. Someone who will let me be there for them just as how they’ve been there for me. Someone who can’t go to sleep after an argument. Someone who calls me first when there is a problem, because handling things alone is no longer an option because we’re whole. Someone who wonders what I’m doing, and who feels embarrassed after they exaggeratingly worry when I don’t call. Someone who understands my problems, and the way they dictate my emotions, and perspectives on everything. Someone who reads this and is wanting the same things too. Someone that can for once not make me feel alone, emotionally, physically, and mentally. Someone, just someone.”

How I yearn to feel a… touch.
to fell your fingers on my cold skin
your fingers inner locked with mine
and our noses against each other as our lips collide.
Touch me.
feel the hair on my arms rise as you breathe deeply
Allow your body to lift off of mine.
breathe deeply.
Touch me.
Come closer.
Allow for our bodies to come together like magnets.
Even if it is only for a moment.
lovely
