we were poetry written with pens that scribbled out each drop of ink until there was nothing left to write with, but the tide came in and knocked at our metaphors and rhythm, pulling the pages of our little stories and moments further and further from shore, tearing apart our binds and page numbers with the force of a love that has been submerged in stinging salt and swells of...

Anonymous asked: Today I thought about him. Today I pictured him in my head and looked for his face on the sidewalks. Today I didn't tell anyone what I was thinking about. Today I wished that he knew my name. Today I wished that I smiled at him, said hi when I had the chance. Today I told myself that no other boy that I meet will be as good as he is. Today I thought about the fact that he doesn't know I...

I was self consumed. My mind thought about nothing but the person staring back at me in the mirror. My biggest concern was not my family, or my boyfriend, or my schoolwork, not even the upcoming season or any excitement towards my future, but rather the biggest weight upon my shoulders was stitched with concern over myself. I criticised my height, my face, my arms, my stomach, my...
Anonymous asked: I don't understand how you can tell me to move when you know that I am completely in love with you. I don't understand how you can tell yourself that you need to move on because I know that you are completely in love with me. Why can't we do the easy thing which is being in love together? What is so wrong with that? Sometimes, the hardest things aren't the right things.
Anonymous asked: We were watching TV when a “withheld” number called my cell phone. I picked up and it was a person asking for Macy. I told her she had the wrong number and hung up. Not thinking in the least about who it was or what they wanted, I continued watching Scrubs with Katie. Just before this, me and Katie were talking about how much it sucked that my dad hates me, and relationship problems,...
brittanyymichele asked: Hey! I just wanted to let you know about my blog, not go get more followers, but so that people may be encouraged and edified through what God is teaching me and what He is doing in my life. I want people to submit what He is doing in their lives also so that those things may be shared as well. Also, I would love to have many people praying for this blog, that God would use it to bring people...

Everything about us has been the exception. You know everything I’ve done to be near to you even when we couldn’t be together. Even when it was bad timing I stayed around, made myself half depressed for a little while there, and then you helped me get out of it. I’ve had one relationship since we first met, and that lasted a month, and I ended it because it was nothing in comparison to how i felt...

“I couldn’t stay after you said you could never be with me - I didn’t want to start crying in public. Did you see my eyes burning before you left for class? I hope you meant what you said and that this is what you want, because I don’t think I can bounce back from this one. Are you sure this is what you want? You know what I don’t get? I’ve lost you three times and I still want you back, but you...

She idled the engine for a moment in front of her parent’s house before turning the key, feeling the car shudder to a stop beneath her. It was another few moments before she was able to gather the courage to unbuckle her seatbelt, open the door, and clamber from the vehicle. Her boots— brand-new, high-heeled, ankle-height, black suede— crunched on the snow. It hadn’t snowed in a couple days, but...
are you a writer? do you have something to say?
submit the URL of your favourite piece of writing and i’ll reblog it here. sometimes the words written from the fingers of strangers can reach the parts of our bones that we don’t have the strength to touch on our own.

silverwords:
i tried so hard to resist you - to look past the icebergs in your eyes and to write over the words you set in the palms of my hands - but you’re still here and my hands are behind your ears, leaving fingerprints on your neck and galaxies of barely-felt touches tracing your jawbone. my lips have kissed yours beneath branches in the dark. i’ve pulled the strings of your hoodie, leading...

Anonymous asked: Today i got a dagger through my heart. I was told i wasn't the girl he wanted. That there was someone else he was supposed to be with.... Today i lived through pain but i know things will be okay through God. He has a better boy out there for me. Someone who i will be good enough for.
chaotique asked: Would you mind taking a couple seconds out of your day to vote for me in the Mad Men casting call? There are only nine days left and I need to be in the top ten (women) - I’m so close! I know this is random but I’m just trying to reach out where I can and figured it couldn’t hurt to ask around :) If you’ve voted before, I’m sorry for asking again, but you can vote...
vivianladadahs asked: Today I realized something important. I realized that I am a control freak, but only over myself. That means I give myself permission to be happy, to work hard, to love, but also to make a fool of myself, to take my pride away, and to hurt myself. No one can do this to me. Only I can.

Today, I made up my mind. I decided I wanted to talk with him. Tell him. I’ve been afraid for so long, but, afraid of what? It’s just a talk, nothing to lose, EVERYTHING to gain. So I went where he was suppoused to be. He wasn’t there. I’ll wait, I guess. But YOU, maybe it’s not too late for you. What do you have to lose? Take a risk, it’s gonna be worth it.

Today, I started to live. I started to realize that life is beautiful, and that all these quotes make sense. All the “take risks, have no regrets, smile, live in the present” cliches and quotes are real. It will take me awhile to listen to them, and to actually use them in my life. But i will try, and as cliche as that sounds it will all work for the best. And the reason I have come...

Today I realized the love we have for each other will go on forever. No matter how old we get we’ll always think of each other from when we were in love. I know for a fact that I will constantly think of you when I get older. And although for now our relationship has ended, I still intend on having no regrets about us for when I do think of you. Therefore, right now I am telling you that I...
EVERY WARM HEART ON TUMBLR, PLEASE REBLOG THIS! →
A good friend of mines lost her boyfriend to a tragic car accident last month. In honor of his memory, she is currently trying to put together a concert with some of his favorite bands. One of them being The Dave Matthews Band. The only information we have so far is that they’re managed by…

We were never together. He came along after my first heartbreak, out of nowhere. I never intended for anything to happen. I was cautious, I questioned myself as to whether he was a rebound. I was wary, because I didn’t need another heartbreak, I didn’t need more pain. I didn’t need my heart to break into even more pieces. But I fell for him anyway.
On hindsight, trusting him was a problem....
Anonymous asked: After staying up for over 24 hours out of fear, I finally told my dad almost everything. I told him that I felt like therapy wasn't helping to improve our relationship because it was headed in all of the wrong directions. I told him that I wasn't over the fact that he cheated on my mom after being married for over twenty-five years, even though we've all known about it for five...

what do you miss right now?
i miss long drives that ended in places i’ve never been before, long grass that reached my knees, mornings where the sun imprints its light on my skin, and holding him for the first time after being apart for days that i lost count of.
Anonymous asked: Today, I am done with fear. I am done with not letting myself do things I know I actually want to do but don't because I am afriad. It's just not worth it. I know life is worth it, I know doing what you love and giving your all fearlessly is worth it. I know you're worth it. I'm done worrying about things. I'm going to face my fears.
I'm going to love...

today i was uncomfortable and nervous and horrible with words. i wanted to run away, like times before. i wanted to forget my intentions of making things right, because i wanted to take the easy way. i wanted to turn around and leave nothing behind. but i didn’t. i was brave and i was honest and i broke my own heart and started piecing it back together all in an hour. i apologized. i did it....

i thought being friends would be easier than forgetting about you. i didn’t want things to change, though i knew they had. best friends are hard to let go of, i guess. i thought we would be able to talk about the things we used to and that we’d still spend hour-long drives to places with no names…

Today you hurt me. Today you broke off everything that I ever wanted. Today you deceived me. Today, I felt dead.

Today, I went somewhere just so I could go somewhere else.

Today, I saw you again. I didn’t feel hopeless and broken anymore. I didn’t see you as the guy I want to be with—I saw you as a guy who definitely isn’t worth it. I looked at you with no intention of you looking back or talking to me. Today, I was happy to know that even after seeing you again, I truly am done with you.
And it’s wonderful.

Today I realized I want no less than all of him - this love is too strong, too destructive, too beautiful, too passionate, too intimate, too warm to waste on only half of him.
Today we tried to return to the way things were. Today we spoke like friends, like we used to tease and chat and banter. But today wasn’t like those other days.
Today he knew I loved him, and today I knew he knew...

I realized, I think I love you. And love is great. But you know what really kills me? That you’re with her. I’ve tried to not gave feelings for you, and it doesn’t work. I think part of me will be waiting for you because I think that deep down you know you should be with me, you just haven’t realized it yet. And I know we live 2 hours away from each other, but it’ll...

I know you’ve found yourself somewhere else to live - a mansion compared to my humble, barely-furnished flat. But I just wanted you to know that I’m always here with my door open, waiting for you to come home.

Today he proposed. To all of you who said that long distance relationships don’t work and that I was crazy for waiting, quite frankly, I told you so. I told you that we’d prove you wrong and I told you that problems caused by distance were never going to be stronger than we were. And to all of you ladies and gentlemen who are currently dating someone that lives miles and miles from...

One year ago, today, I lived. Today was the day our lives intertwined. It was the day I sat front row at that show as you got called onto that stage. You walked on, guitar in hands. Your name sounded familiar; I did remember you being mentioned a few times awhile back. “Oh, so that’s him.” As you were performing, you made eye contact with me, and we shared one moment to ourselves...
I still think you should smile. →

Today, I realized I have somethings that everyone wants. Happiness, two parents, siblings, my own room; food, water, shelter, three square meals and snacks a day; education and great friends to ask for. A house and two cars which people could classify people would instantly say to me ” Your Family is rich!”. They think I am pleased with the prizes I get from my family; when I am...

Today I think I got over you. Today I realized it’s never gonna happen, so why should I wait around? It’s difficult, being over you. Because sadly, you’re kind of what I’m looking for. You fit my “criteria”. Which is awful. Not that you are all of those awesome things, but that you are all the awesome things that I’m looking for, and having trouble...
