Accidental Discovery...
So I have this favourite song, it’s been my favourite song for years upon years and even though my music taste has changed so much, how it doesn’t even relate to that song anymore, how very few songs are like that one in my music library, I still love it… and I think know I always will.
Only today I found out something quite shocking. The first time I ever heard this song was...
Just Know...
august-is-over:
When you hear that roar of thunder that resonates deep within the walls of your heart, when that spark of lightning lights up your quivering body within the deepest dark of night. Know that I’ll be there, right beside you, so you need not be scared, you need not be brave, for I will be brave for the both of us. All I ask is that you cling to me with a desire to never let go.

A story my mother once told me.
Brain: I know everything you've ever set your eyes on, heard, touched, smelled and tasted
Heart: Why won't you tell me what I need to remember
Brain: Because I'm trying to protect you.
Heart: From what?
Brain: From letting our host become lead by me

I love you.
I love you, and I’ll always love you, so much so that sometimes it scares me, but I don’t need to tell you that because you know. I know you feel the same. I’m here to watch over you and protect you, I’ll be the place you hide away from the world in, the one place you feel safe and sound, I’ll lend you every ounce of my strength when you need it, I’ll wipe away...

Healing.
I’ve seen and been through a great deal of things in my life. From each, I have come to consume a great deal of knowledge. I have learned that some things you will see can be truly haunting and terrifying. They can stalk your dreams and get you while you sleep. There are things that you can experience that will cut you deeply. They will make you bleed, and no matter what those wounds do to...

Beats only for you.
You have the words in you to change the world, you have a heart that screams louder than thunder. You have everything I have ever searched for. To me you are perfect down to the last strand of hair that is sown into the fabric of you.
I’ve lost you before and that hurt me. Somehow you found your way back to me and now I love you more than I ever fathomed that I could, now I know a...

A Comet.
Throughout history comets have been known to inspire humankind. They have been a shining beacon in the sky which can inspire hope and love. They have been the light when all else was dark, they have I’m sure given humankind belief and strength and been the light that has guided the way to something of sheer greatness.
I’m one of a few in the world lucky enough to know what the inspiration of a...

Things that make me happy.
Finding myself driving on an empty winding road, late at night with the perfect song playing.
Seeing her smile and hearing her laugh. Just hearing her voice in general.
Finding a new song that captures everything I feel at that very moment in time.
Random text messages from friends, that make me smile.
Watching a really inspiring movie, that makes me want to go out and do something.

Meaning.
People have been pondering the meaning of life for millennia, some of us find it in a higher being, we devote our lives to god and hope for something eternal at the end. Others satisfy human desires in order to find fulfilment of some sort, so we seek knowledge, power and wealth. But at the end of it all, does it matter at all? Because we’ll all die, and before we do so, we will ask ourselves what...

A Mothers Image.
The first woman a boy will meet is his mother. She is the first thing he will see with focused eyes, and the one whose voice he will know even before being born. She is the one who will know his temperaments better than anyone, she is the one who will be able to read him like a book. So when it comes to boys, one should look at how he treats his mother, because that’s usually a good...

Dear Mother,
You gave birth to me, you gave me the gift of life and you have never asked anything of me. You never forced me to do anything I didn’t want to do. You never let me believe that there wasn’t anything that I couldn’t do. You have stood up for me when no one else would, and you were an entire army against my enemies. You have given everything you had to give me the things I...

Teaching.
By definition teachers, teach, they impart wisdom and knowledge. But there are a few that do far more than that. There are some that will go above and beyond their call of duty. I’ve had the fortune of meeting a couple of great teachers. The thing is they are paid to teach, but some go about forming the foundations of your entire being, sometimes that’s unintentional but it happens as...

Chess.
Events in life are like a chess game, you make moves against life itself, some of those moves act to shorten the spam of your life. Others can lengthen it considerably. Like chess, life can be long and gruelling, it can sometimes seem relentless. And sometimes, it can seem like you’re stuck. But all you really need to do is stand back, take a look of the board as a whole, take your...

Bambi Eyes.
She was a girl with Bambi eyes. She has known hurt and loss. Some might say she was weak and frail. Some might say she was broken and wounded. But I knew better. I could see it in her eyes the very first time I laid my own darkened brown eyes upon them. She wasn’t weak, she was craving a taste of real life. And she knew with that comes loss. She had survived much anguish in her life. Those...

Faith in Love.
august-is-over:
Everything worth having in the world comes with a risk. Every great opportunity is essentially a great big gamble. And love, love is the greatest gamble of all. It involves risks that can destroy you as a person, but in return it offers you a happiness nothing else in the entire universe can ever rival. I guess that’s why each year millions of people take the risk, some are lucky...
How Many
august-is-over:
Sometimes I sit under the moon and the few stars that are not suffocated by the bright lights of this city that I have come to call home. I sit and I wonder how many others there are out there like me. Am I just alone in the thoughts that I have and in all that I seek?
How many people are there who walk a path like mine, paved with the loss of many they loved, hoping helplessly...

Dear You,
I’ve known you for so long that it would be absolutely impossible to imagine a world in which you didn’t exist. You unquestionably mean everything to me, and that’s why I love everything about you. I love that big beautiful smile of yours and I love the way your nose crinkles ever so slightly when you smile. I love staring into your eyes, especially when you’re not looking, only to look away when...

Ghost in the Mirror
Sometimes when I look in the mirror and I don’t see myself. Instead I see a ghost of me, or rather who I want to be. Standing behind me, looking over my shoulder, looking on in disgust. Sometimes this being screams discouraging messages. And sometimes he appears with a discouraging look upon his face, as if to judge me for every decision I’m about to make. Sometimes I feel like...

Memories
Memories are strange things, aren’t they? You sometimes forget things you never want to forget. Yet sometimes the memories you want to forget, haunt you. Sometimes you forget what a lost loved one looks like, no matter how badly you want to hold on to them, they just slip away. And sometimes you want to forget a hurtful memory, yet it’s there haunting and taunting you the moment you...

Becoming you.
As much as you and I would like to believe, we are not individuals. We don’t stand on our own two feet, but rather, we are interconnected to a greater web of dependance than we realise. Love nurtures us in to who we are, and friendships bind us in to a greater destiny, to reach the full potential of who we can be. Friendships, love and creativity, those are the single most important aspects...

What a boy wants…
I want a girl to show me the side of her that no one else in the world is privy to. I want to know her innermost insecurities, so that I can work to make her feel better about them. I want a girl who isn’t perfect, because neither am I. I want a girl who knows that no matter how she looks on any given day, she will always be beautiful to me. I want a girl who is complicated, because complexity...
Want to know a secret?
All guys want in a girl is for her, to show him the side of her, which no one else in the world is privy to.

Sleep deprived ramblings.
It bemuses me the that the United States can pass bills that the vast majority of it’s populous disagree with, to satisfy the desires of a few bourgeois elites, yet it calls itself a democracy and pushes its ‘democratic’ principles down the throats of the ‘uncivilised’ world. What SOPA and PIPA seek to protect, and the means by which they want to protect those assets,...

Cleaning Out My Closet...
I remember when I was 6 years old, I got a RC car as a present, I’m not sure if it was for my birthday or just a gift, but it was shortly after my grandmother had passed away. When my parents gave me the RC car, the realisation hit me that one day they too would pass away. I decided then that I was going to keep this car forever, to remember my parents by. To remember a time when they were...

Memory #9490
I remember a few years ago when I was working late most nights and at school during the day, I’d sleep into the early hours of the afternoon on the weekends, and you didn’t like it. So you would literally send me dozens of texts, from the moment you woke up. Then when I would eventually wake and reply you would say, “oh baby, did I wake you? I’m so sorry”. I used to...

Happy.
I’m only going to walk out of your life when I know you’re happy. Truly and utterly happy. It may not be with me. It may not be for sometime. But when I know you’re happy. When I know you’re fulfilled, that’s when I can close the book on us. I love you and I’ve tried with all my heart to let you go and forget, but I can’t. The day I know you’re...

How she does it.
Has there ever been someone you feel completely and utterly naked around, like as if they can see right through you? Like you’re a glass bottle and your insides lay exposed to be seen. I’ve wondered how she has this ability to know what’s in my head. Right now she’s thousands of miles away, she hasn’t heard my voice in months, hasn’t seen my eyes, hasn’t...
Okay so, in response to the "I don't need this...
I started writing because an English teacher, (who I owe a huge thank you to) once forced me to keep a journal. To write things I may one day forget, things I couldn’t tell anyone else and things I felt. I started this blog on an impulse and to bitch about my ex. And that’s the way it went for a while. I wrote and felt a release. People responded to it, so I broadened the scope of my...

Brown - I would fuck you. Green - I would date you. Black - I hate you. White - Delete your tumblr. Violet - Go die.
Meh, why not?

Changes in Time
When I see you now, I notice how your hair has changed, how subtly different you look and how you seemingly increase in beauty. I wonder why I didn’t notice these things when we were together. Then it hits me just how long it’s been since I saw you last.
You know those give-aways people on tumblr do,...

Gifted.
Gifted is just another label people place on each other. They set you aside at school and tell you they think you’re gifted. And that means you are somehow destined for greatness in some form or other.
Well I don’t believe in gifts, not ones handed down from above anyway. They said I had a gift with words. I said I have a love for language, and when you have a love for something,...

Success
Sometimes I feel like the definition of success in our lives can be misconstrued. It’s by the very nature of the construction of society that we live in. We come to deem trivial things such as beauty, fame and wealth as a point of success. But I learned a long time ago, success in life comes from far more simple foundations. Success is a modest creature, it lives in the smiles of everyday...
