when two people have loved each other,
see how it’s like a scar between their bodies,
stronger, darker, and proud; how the black
cord makes of them a single fabric that 
nothing can tear or mend.

i used many times to touch my own chest
and feel, under its asthmatic quiver, the
engine of the heart and lungs and blood 
and feel amazed at what i sensed was the
enormity of the power i possessed. not 
magical power, but real power. the power
simply to go on, the power to endure, that
is power enough, but i felt i had also the
power to create, to add, to delight, 
to amaze, and to transform.

We tend to fall in love the same way we get sick- Without wanting to, without believing it, against our will, and unable to defend ourselves.

I’ve learned a lot these past few years, through my fake smiles and unseen tears, that friends sometimes are not forever and true love doesn’t always last. The good memories stay with you, but the good moments go by fast. But someone will always be there, someone that honestly does care.

i find myself falling into you all over again,
each time you seep into my pretty blue veins
while i watch the ruby red seep between
your callous bones_soulcatcherquotes
