You shouldn’t have to fight for a spot. Never, ever insist yourself to someone who continuously overlooks your worth. And remember, it’s not the people that stand by your side when you’re at your best, but the ones who stand beside you when you’re at your worst that are your true friends.

these days i’m literally going out of my mind. i sit in class and try to focus and all i see is you. you’re everywhere; in my head, on the board, in my notes and physically 3 seats away. it sounds cliché; you are so close, but so far away at the same time. sometimes just thinking about it makes me feel sick to my stomach. i can’t sleep. i can’t study. i can’t do anything without thinking about you. the truth is, i think that you are the first person that i’ve ever liked. liked more than a passing crush. someone i could actually see myself with.

Last night, you came to me in my dreams again, forever haunting them. I recall waking up to a pain so severe I thought my life maybe coming to an end. I recall that the pain was in no way physical, but it was so real that it was as if a banshee’s scream wailing in absolute sorrow had manifested at the thought of the loss that I had no control over…

I recall that the first thing I did was sit up in bed holding my chest, looking to my friend in the morning and uttering your name in a very shallow voice as I was out of breath. This was followed by “I had the worst dream ever” and I dare call it a dream and not a nightmare, as there was nothing gruesome or horrific about it, after all it had you in it…how could it possibly be?

In complete honesty I remember nothing from it, I could perfectly remember it in the morning, but it is as if I was in so m...

I wish I knew what was wrong. I don’t wish out of a simple curiosity or a desire to know but rather so I could help you. I don’t know what to believe anymore. 4 A.M. And you were at my door, with so many secrets to tell me. You told me everything, how you hated who you were, how you wished you could change, and everything wrong you’ve done. All I could see was guilt on your face, sadness, and I truly do not believe you were lying, just like I believe you really weren’t all that drunk, you’re just using that as an excuse. I believe you hate yourself. This is why you do what you do. This is why you’ve been partying so much, coming home everyday drunk, missing school, dropping classes, and denying everything you said to me. I know you remember what you said. You told me how you felt about me, how you really felt, and you felt it for a while. It took me by surprise after everything...

August 15, 1846

I will cover you with love when next I see you, with caresses, with ecstasy. I want to gorge you with all the joys of the flesh, so that you faint and die. I want you to be amazed by me, and to confess to yourself that you had never even dreamed of such transports… When you are old, I want you to recall those few hours, I want your dry bones to quiver with joy when you think of them.

(Gustave Flaubert to Louise Colet)

You texted me last night because you were upset that your new girlfriend treats you badly. You said you wish it was easy like it was with us. You even said, “Someday.” You always used to say that. But ‘someday’ will never come for us. Just as ‘forever and always’ ended. We talked for hours, but like I predicted, I didn’t hear from you today. It’s been a year since you left and yet you still have a hold on my heart.

But this time, I’m taking it back.

IX. everytime i see you walking in a crowd of people, i don’t see anyone else but you – even if what you’re wearing that day is a very ugly shirt. even if i pass by and pretend to be too stoned to notice you, i really am very happy to see you. my friends say that you’re really no good for me at all, but there’s something about you that makes me all strange and giddy inside. i lay in the grass at midnight and think about how you made a complete humiliation of yourself in front of everyone last year. or, i think about all those times that you were a complete idiot, and the fact that even when you try your hardest, you let me down sometimes. i think about all these things and smile. you are a human, and i love the fact that you make me feel infinite.

V. the night after we first spoke, i went outside and wished on the brightest star that all my happiness could be given to you so that you could feel better. i know you think wishing on stars is cliched and naive. but that’s me. in fact, i am so naive that i like to imagine that you still think about me now, three years later. i like to think that you sometimes wonder about me, sometimes wish you could tell me secrets and tell me jokes like you used to.

but even if you don’t, even if i was nothing but a blip on the grand radar of your beautiful life, that’s okay. you taught me more about myself than any other person, and in return i can only hope that you know how much i will always love you. i wish, still, after all this time, that you’re the happiest person on the planet. i wish for you love, joy and hope. not because you gave me those things. but ...

XVII. I still write to you everyday in my head. I imagine that letter just dropped in the mailbox is from you – i can see your handwriting. I still lie awake at night and remember my fingers on your stubbly face in the dark.

You gave me a reason. You filled be up with a passion so much that it overflowed my eyesockets and shone in pools on the floor. I knew you were something, but I still dont know what. But I know that you changed me, I will never be the same because I love you now. I will always love you. I think that makes me a traitor and a liar and a cheat, but I still love you anyway.

Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand- How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep, While I weep- while I weep! O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave? Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream?

I can’t conceive of you. I’ve tried and keep trying. I want to believe that you’re me without a concept, that you’re devoid of conceptualization. It scares me to consider this, but it’s a strangely pleasurable fear, a kind of shoddy, simulacral sublime, generated by my own romantic inclinations. It has no concrete relationship with this absence of certainty about who and what you could actually be.

There used to be a fence and I used to be able to fit in between the cracks and run for an endless amount of time, a procession of moments, along green grass and large pipes an security cameras and some strange buildings. I had no idea where I was and that added to the beauty of it. It had the sheen of a young adult novel,a fairytale, so what. These things lose their spark when you acquire a map. I don't want to grow up. It's too late.

I was hoping that one day I'd have a chance to tell you about the moths. I thought I'd be able to press you open like I used to do with flowers, thumbing the petals, running fingers up the scale of leaves. it's almost funny how acquainted I've become with the delicate. I've twirled smile lines around the tips of my fingers. I've held the redness of an apple and sank my teeth into the wholeness.

"I love unmade beds. I love when people are drunk and crying and cannot be anything but honest in that moment. I love the look in people's eyes when they realize they're in love. I love the way people look when they first wake up and they've forgotten they surroundings. I love the gasp people take when their favourite character dies. I love when people close their eyes and drift to somewhere in the clouds. I fall in love with people and their honest moments all the time. I fall in love with their breakdowns and their smeared makeup and their daydreams. Honestly, it's just too beautiful to ever put into words."

♡ Fantasy, enchantment, dreams, myths, spiritual beings, angels, fairies are all concepts which fill the Lavenders' mind. Lavenders tend to live in a fantasy world. They prefer to spend their time out of their bodies, where life is pretty and enchanting. It is challenging for these airy beings to live in three-dimensional reality.

♡ Lavenders prefer imaginary pictures of the world, seeing butterflies, flowers and wood nymphs rather than dirt, concrete and large cities. Physical reality seems cold and harsh to them. These sensitive creatures are fragile and frail, and their physical appearance is often weak and pale.

♡ Lavenders' skin is often alabaster white because they don't like being outdoors, unless it is to be gently surrounded by beautiful flowers and gardens. These child-like personalities are sensitive and ...

Yes Marquis -

I will keep my word with you, and upon all occasion shall speak the truth, though I sometimes tell it at my own expense. I have more firmness of mind than perhaps you may imagine, and ‘tis very probable that in the course of this correspondence, you will think I push this quality too far, even to severity. But then, please to remember that I have only the outside of a woman, and that my heart and mind are wholly masculine…

Shall I tell you what makes love so dangerous? ‘Tis the too high idea we are apt to form it. But to speak the truth, love, considered as passion, is merely a blind instinct, that we should rate accordingly. It is an appetite, which inclines us to one object, rather than another, without our being able to account for our taste. Considered as a bond of friendship, where reason presides, it is no longer a pa...

You know how this is: if I look at the crystal moon, at the red branch of the slow autumn at my window, if I touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body of the log, everything carries me to you, as if everything that exists, aromas, light, metals, were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad, the wind of banners that passes through my life, and you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots, remember that on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms and my roots will set off to see...

Annabel Lee

It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of ANNABEL LEE; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea; But we loved with a love that was more than love- I and my Annabel Lee; With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful Annabel Lee; So that her highborn kinsman came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven, Went envying her and me- Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingd...

"Why do others always say that two people of the same gender can’t love one another? he sighed. I don’t have a clue, replied the second boy, But what I do know is that I want you more than anything I’ve ever seen, tasted, held, or felt in this world, and that has to count for something. I love the way you bite your lips when you’re nervous, how you always hold your dinner plate with both hands, the curve of your back. I hate the smell of those nasty old cigarettes you always smoke; I despise the sound of your cough and the scratchy feel of the wollen sweaters you wear when you’re sick, but I’d never change a damn thing about you. You’re all I want; you’re all I need. And if that’s not love, then I don’t know what is." - Fragment 98

this morning, i dreamt of you. you seriously need to give me a break. part of my reasons why im mia is because i want to burn the bridge between us. i guess it’s too much to ask for. i hope you let me go already. stop haunting my dreams. it felt real when i woke up and the shitty part was that i wasn’t sure if i wanted it to be real or not.

and tonight, i would rather have a conversation with you instead of with my homeworks pulling my hair out. i miss you. and how we used to be. how normal and honest i could be with you and you wouldn’t care how messed up i am.

I'm sorry but I know you're not. I'll lock up all the words we've ever exchanged in a little black box. No matter the case, I'm so very happy that you're happy. It touches my soul to see you smile. I know the endless ribbons of smugness lodged inside of it but I also know there's selflessness in it too. I wish you the best. I can't say I miss you because I'm not too sure of that any more. But I hope you're happy and that you stay happy and that everything turns out all right.

"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When someone loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."

"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"

"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept...

May 12, 1869

Out of the depths of my happy heart wells a great tide of love and prayer for this priceless treasure that is confided to my life-long keeping.

You cannot see its intangible waves as they flow towards you, darling, but in these lines you will hear, as it were, the distant beating of the surf.

(Mark Twain to Olivia Langdon)

But let me have this letter, containing nothing but your love; and tell me that you give me your lips, your hair, all that face that I have possessed, and tell me that we embrace - you and I!

O God, O God, when I think of it, my throat closes, my sight is troubled; my knees fail, ah, it is horrible to die, it is also horrible to love like this! What longing, what longing I have for you! I beg you to let me have the letter I ask. I am dying. Farewell.

I see it in your eyes. I see it in the way you hold back. I can see it. I can see that you have the ability to love me, but you won’t. I can see that you’re scared, because you see what happened with her, happen with me all over again. I’m you’re best friend, as was she, but I’m not her. I will never be her. I will never treat you the way she did. I’ll never let what happened with her, happen with us. I’ll never let you walk away from me. Never let us fall apart. I can see your fear of it, but it’s fear that shouldn’t even exist. It’s fear that I wish I could remove. I want a chance with the most amazing person I’ve ever met. You just have to be willing to let me in. I see through you, when you try to hide things. I’m in love with you. When will you realize that I tell that with my heart in it? When will you see that, when I say that, I put my life in it. I promise ...

VII. I want to move in with you. Because I feel sad when I’m not with you. I can’t sleep soundly when I’m not with you. I woke up the other morning and my shoulders were aching because you weren’t there to hold them straight with your arms around me. I don’t think you want me to live with you though. You don’t think we’ll have sex as often as we do, you think I’ll get bored of you, you think I’ll want you to entertain me all the time. But I wont. I want to be in the room next door to you and tap Morse Code against our wall when I can’t sleep. I want to slip long lover letters under your door. I want to make you coffee in the morning. I want to give you your mail and I want you to come to the shops with me every day to buy groceries. It’s not that I’m scared of being alone, or scared of being out of love. I’m just scared of not being with you, however that may be.

IV. i sometimes write poems, and when i read them later, i realize they were about you. i sometimes look at the sky, and when i feel happy seeing a flock of geese or a bright red cardinal, i think of the elation and power and happiness you bring to me. i sometimes do the craziest shit, but i always wish you were there to see. i sometimes lie down in the river behind school in the spring, and while my blood cools under the pulsating light through the trees, in a place where wind has more force and penetration, i allow your being to enter my mind, and i let it seep out into the river. it travels through the water and towards the banks, and it is now embedded in trees and grass and flowers.

you will always interest me, and therefore i will always love you. i will watch you button your shirt slowly and carefully, and that will be enough. i will see you smile when i tell a joke or say something...

I would be a coward and a liar if I said that I didn’t love you. Love is a frightening thing; it entails laying your heart on a cutting board, handing someone a knife, yet trusting that they won’t use it. Giving my love to you means giving you the power to hurt me more than anyone can or has ever had the ability to. It is then expected – no, required – that if you accept this love of mine, you understand these things. You must summon the courage to assume the responsibility of the precious gift you now hold. But somehow it seems incorrect to call my love a gift – you have earned every loving thought, every kind word, every caring gesture. ‘Giving’ love to you implies that you don’t deserve it, and that couldn’t be further from the truth. Love is the most valuable thing I have in this world and I wouldn’t just give it away.

If you can dream---and not make dreams your master; If you can think---and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same:. If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;
