you can have something and not be able to keep it for long
“Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people.”
— Carl Jung
I want romance. I want laughter. I want the 3am love making. I want consistency. I want loyalty. I want the random looks of admiration. I want to know you're just for me. I want date nights and flowers. I want truth. I want priority. I want love that's pure and calming.
To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.
— Thích Nhất Hạnh
“Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when you look back, everything is different.”
— C.S. Lewis
The things she says that sounds like ‘I love you’ without saying it.

i fixed you while i was bleeding too
It comes and it goes, knowing I’m alive It hits me sometimes, like a lightning strike Just whilst I’m living, just while outside And the sun warms the skin of my face
‘I’m here,’ I think, and I am right, ‘I’m warm,’ I say, from my bed at night ‘I live,’ I wonder, with my toes in the grass, ‘how lovely,’ I sigh, as I watch the clouds pass
There is love in holding and there is love in letting go.
