Everybody keeps telling me how surprised they are with what I’ve done. But I’m telling you honestly that it doesn’t surprise me. I knew I could do it. Ralph Waldo Emerson (via reluctantbuddha) (via quote-book)

Kissed him. There, in the middle of the street, as the world went on around us.

I know you’re lonely. I think you need someone to want you. Well, I do want you. So be brave, and want me back. Skins (via expose) (via liketati) (via apologies)
Theres only so many times you can allow someone to let you down before you can’t handle the disappointment anymore. When things change, people change. There’s a point in life where you get tired of chasing everyone trying to fix things, but it’s not giving up, you’ve got to do what’s right for you, even if it hurts.

There are so many things I want to say to you, but time’s caught me up and now I’ll never say them except that I’ve loved you from the moment I saw you and every moment since Robin Hood (via gatekeeper) (via prettyeyed) (via apologies)
Like any accelerant, that would change the equation. Add love, and a person might do something crazy. Add love, and all the lines between right and wrong were bound to disappear. Jodi Picoult (via apologies)
It’s not okay because he made me laugh. Because I didn’t have to pretend to be anything other than who I am when I was with him. Because I don’t believe that stuff about finding your other half, but because I do believe that what you look for is someone who makes you a better person when you’re with them, who changes you for the better, who makes you the best person you can possibly be, and because I thought I had finally found that. Jane Green (via scoobayz) (via marjchun) (via apologies)
Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them. Jodi Picoult (via aristobrat) (via apologies)
You’re a tongue-tied talker with sleepy eyes that always gets the last word. You’re not broken, you’re just tired and it shows. Patrick Park (via komhem) (via apologies)

Hold onto your voice. Hold onto your breath. Don’t make a noise, don’t leave the room until I come back from the dead for you. I will come back from the dead for you. This could be a city. This could be a graveyard. This could be the basket of a big balloon. Leave the lights on. Leave a trail of letters like those little knots of bread we used to dream about. Put your hand to the knob, your mouth to the hand. Pick up the bread and devour it. I’m in the hallway again, I’m in the hallway. The radio’s playing my favorite song. Leave the lights on. Keep talking. I’ll keep walking toward the sound of your voice. richard siken (via monstersflash) (via align)
