Without Ambition One Starts Nothing. Without Work One Finishes Nothing. The Prize Will Not Be Sent To

Thoughts on Love #16

This is neither what i expected, nor what I wanted. 

I thought love was about fighting for something, not with someone- then i realized how similar the two concepts were. I understand now that i was fighting with you in order to protect myself, when really all I needed was you. 

Your shoulders are littered

With meaningless tatoos

Inky reminders

That cannot be removed

So here is new mistake

For you to wear around

And maybe it will mean something

When i am nowhere to be found

Thoughts on Love #8

In the waves is the truth behind love. It doesn't burn like a fire, or dance like the wind. Love is the rippling, crashing, rising, falling, swaying, never-ceasing tide which crashes against the shores of my heart. Slowly chipping away at the rock-solid armor which protects the person who has been hurt one too many times.

Thoughts on Beauty #7

The stars hold infinity. Each one is unique and bright, each one is thousands of miles apart and yet still together in one sky- that is why they are beautiful. Is the same not true for humans? We are each different and still connected, and each one of us holds a light inside of ourselves that can change the world. Are we not beautiful in the same way that stars are? Do we not hold infinity in the same way that they do?

I took a train to Amsterdam

To see something that's new

The lull of life had gotten to me

So I got away from you.

Do you ever think

That if they could see us now

They would be ashamed

Of what we’ve become?

Armed only with paper

And pensive looks

Ink in my veins

Blood in my books

Tears staining a blank page

I do not live to write

Instead I find the opposite

When inspiration strikes

Thoughts on Love #10

And with a single word, our love flickered to life. It started small, like a burning ember in a furnace, but soon it grew into a roaring fire. Every time you say my name, it burns brighter. My heart is on fire with love for you- and I know that no power on this earth could extinguish it.

Thoughts on Love #15

Why do I love you? I ask myself that everyday. Through all the hurt, all the pain, through every broken heart I still love you. 

You hate the way I look at you, but the truth is that I don't know any other way to see you than as perfect. Then it occured to me- I love you so I can show you how much you are worth.

Have you ever

Felt as if

Breathing water

Would be easier

Than breathing

Air?
