June 2013
I feel like people find me quite boring because I am quiet. But it’s not that I have little to say; quite the opposite: it’s that I have so much to say, that I fear coming off as unintelligent because my thoughts are jumbled. Or because I fear that what I want to say will bore others. So instead of speaking, I say nothing.

“There’s a brief moment when you first wake up, where you have no memories. A blissful blank slate, a happy emptiness.”
—Candace Bushnell (via hellanne)
“The fact that I’m silent doesn’t mean I have nothing to say.”
—Jonathan Carroll (via hellanne)
I don’t want to be
your entire world, no.
I would be happy
just to be your morning coffee,
your hanging car keys,
your wallet.
Something seemingly
insignificant,
but if lost throws off
your entire day.
“I’m too much of a coward to kill myself. And too much of a coward to live.”
—Jodi Picoult (via hellanne)
“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over again.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald (via ph-azing)
I’ve managed to cut everyone I was ever close to out of my life completely.
I am alone.
I was in denial. I continued to push myself into your life when all you wanted was for me to disappear. Now I want myself to disappear.
“I’m never gonna wait
that extra twenty minutes
to text you back,
and I’m never gonna play
hard to get
when I know your life
has been hard enough already.
When we all know everyone’s life
has been hard enough already
it’s hard to watch
the game we make of love,
like everyone’s playing checkers
with their scars,
saying checkmate
whenever they get out
without a broken heart.
Just to be clear
I don’t want to get out
without a broken heart.
I intend to leave this life
so shattered
there’s gonna have to be
a thousand separate heavens
for all of my flying parts.” —Andrea Gibson (via dumbgrrl)

Why can’t I just disappear?
“Nothing can wear you out like caring about people.”
—S.E. Hinton, That Was Then, This Is Now (via cinisterr)
yo fuck anyone who doesn’t want you in their life and fuck anyone who treats you bad and fuck anyone who breaks your heart because they’re all fuckin losers and they’re definitely not worth your time because your time is precious and the only people who deserve it are people who treat you right and are nice and don’t lie to you and buy you ice cream.
