I’m Trying 😩

This is completely and utterly random but I think my city is very pretty

Believe that you deserve a future you enjoy. Believe in your ability to transform yourself. No one can do this for you, but yourself– you are the wild card, you are the changemaker, you are your own light.

Sydney Correa, Stop and Smell the Roses: The Little Book of Loving Myself (via inspirationalinsight)

It comes and it goes, knowing I’m alive It hits me sometimes, like a lightning strike Just whilst I’m living, just while outside And the sun warms the skin of my face

‘I’m here,’ I think, and I am right, ‘I’m warm,’ I say, from my bed at night ‘I live,’ I wonder, with my toes in the grass, ‘how lovely,’ I sigh, as I watch the clouds pass

life is better when you’re dead

I’m simultaneously the most obsessive most detached girl in the world

Mahmoud Darwish, from Unfortunately, It Was Paradise: Selected Poems; “The Flute Cried,”

I look at you and see a whole universe. A beautiful construction of so many different parts. You’re bright and mesmerizing.

“do not fall in love with people like me. i will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth. i will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. and when i leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people.”
