I WISH YOU WERE A BETTER MAN.

 

 
"Sometimes the people with the greatest
  potential often take the longest to find        their path because their sensitivity is a       double edged sword- it lives at the              heart of their brillance, but it also             makes them more susceptible to life's           pains. good thing we aren't being              penalized for handing in our                     purpose late. the soul doesn't know             a thing about deadlines."




Nothing compares to your hands, nothing like the green-gold of your eyes. My body is filled with you for days and days. you are the mirror of the night. the violent flash of lightning. the dampness of the earth. The hollow of your armpits is my shelter. my fingers touch your blood. All my joy is to feel life spring from your flower-fountain that mine keeps to fill all the paths of my nerves which are yours.
     — Frida Kahlo, The Diary of Frida Kahlo: An Intimate Self-Portrait
 

THE MOON WILL NEVER lie to anyone. Be like the moon. No one hates the moon or wants to kill it. The moon does not take antidepressants and never gets sent to prison. The moon never shot a guy in the face and ran away. The moon has been around a long time and has never tried to rip anyone off. The moon does not care who you want to touch or what color you are. The moon treats everyone the same. The moon never tries to get in on the guest list or use your name to impress others. Be like the moon. When others insult or belittle in an attempt to elevate themselves, the moon sits passively and watches, never lowering itself to anything that weak. The moon is beautiful and bright. It needs no makeup to look beautiful. The moon never shoves clouds out of its way so it can be seen. The moon needs not fame or money to be powerful. The moon never asks you to go to war to defend it. Be like the moon.

 





Mad people, people who stand alone and burn. I’m attracted to them because they give me permission to do the same.



 

Farewells can be shattering, but returns are surely worse. Solid flesh can never live up to the bright shadow cast by its absence. Time and distance blur the edges; then suddenly the beloved has arrived, and it's noon with its merciless light, and every spot and pore and wrinkle and bristle stands clear.

This quote does not exist.

There’s unconditional love there. You hear that phrase a lot but it’s real with me and her… She loves me in spite of everything, in spite of myself. She has saved my life more than once. She’s always been there with her love, and it has certainly made me forget the pain for a long time, many times. When it gets dark and everybody’s gone home and the lights are turned off, it’s just me and her.

                              —Johnny Cash

He’d never cared much for strawberries, but that summer her lips were so stained with the juices that they were all he tasted. And he’d never had a favorite fruit, but two years later, a new girl is sat in front of him, laughing at his jokes. “If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?” She asks playfully. And he remembers how her hands traced the veins in his neck and made their way across his chest. He remembers her soft breathing and limbs draped across his shoulders. “Strawberries.” He tells her. “I could live a life on nothing but strawberries.”

 
You deserve somebody that texts you at work
just to tell you they miss your presence.
You deserve somebody that cooks bacon and eggs
your favorite way, and then brings it up to you
in bed. You deserve somebody that bathes
you when you're sick. You deserve somebody
that lets you steal the covers. You deserve somebody
who lets you use their lap as a pillow.
You deserve somebody that doesn't
mind when you kiss them with morning breath.
You deserve somebody that you can get into an argument
with, but still presses
themselves against your sleeping body at 3am.
You deserve playlists made specifically for you.
You deserve somebody that lets you have the remote.
You deserve somebody that always picks
out your favorite chocolate at the grocery
store. You deserve somebody
that kisses every blemish on your body, and calls
them all beautiful. You deserve somebody
that holds your shaking, crying body and whispers
"Shh. It will be okay." You deserve somebody
that loves you unconditionally, you deserve this
type of love. I do hope you find it.
