Quote
It's March. I open the window and spring floats in, kisses me on the nose. I have waited so long- and now the Sun is washing the world in yellow, and now the seeds sprout green in the dirt, and now the trees are budding and ready to bloom- and it was all so worth it
Schuyler Peck, Worth the Wait

"Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly".

That strange feeling of longing when you are at a train station, in a 24/7 open market, when you are buying a coke from the vending machine, watching the city lights glow from your window, when you’re walking aimlessly on a busy street after 5 pm, that feeling as if something is missing in your life and it will never come back although it was never there in the first place; that inexplicable urban sadness.

“I want you to know, if you ever read this, there was a time when I would rather have had you by my side than any one of these words; I would rather have had you by my side than all the blue in the world.

"But, darling...
You deserve someone who fills your cup. You deserve someone who knows your needs and stretches himself to fulfill them. You deserve someone who goes above and beyond to love you in the way your heart desires to be touched the most. Someone who pours himself into you without requiring you to shrink, a love that overextends itself to ensure that your desires are fulfilled. You deserve someone that constantly gives himself to you without any hesitation, a man that's sure about you and picks you up with his presence more than he does with his presents. You deserve a present man, a loving man, a kind man. You deserve a love that nourishes and nurtures your mental and emotional well-being."

For women who are tied to the moon, love alone is not enough. we insist each day wrap it’s knuckles through our heart strings and pull. the lows. the joy. the poetry. we dance at the edge of a cliff, you have fallen off. so it goes. you will climb up again.
You rare girl, once again, you have a body that belongs to no lover, to no father, belongs to no one but you. wear your sorrow like the lines on your palm. like a shawl to keep you warm at night. don’t mourn the love that is lost to you now. it is a book of poems whose meters worked their way into your pulse. even if it has slipped from your hands, it will stay in your body.
You loved a man who treated you like absinthe, half poison and half god. he tried to sweeten you, to water you down. so you left. and now you have your heart all to yourself again. a heart like a stone cottage. heart like a lover’s diary. hope like an ocean.
-Anaïs Nin
