Hope, in anything but myself, is just way too dangerous right now…

I feel like a paper cut just waiting to bleed.

I know that this process of ‘me changing my life’ doesn’t just end once I set fire to this list of things I hate about myself. Tonight isn’t as much of a new beginning as...

I tried to push my body through his and completely disappear.

The Fall will always be yours and mine…

Something, somewhere, knows what’s best for me and promises to keep sending me people and experiences to light my way as long as I live in gratitude and keep paying attention to the signs.

I really believe that there is an invisible red thread tied between him and me, and that it has stretched and tangled for years — across oceans and lifetimes. I know that it won’t break...

I write letters to you that you’ll never see.
