“Poetry is the loveliest art. It has a wretched way of revealing our own character when we think we are judging the poets.”

Sometimes love is nothing more than a sticky web; illusions spun, from clever minds and bitter hearts.

There is no greater power than that of the sun, the moon, and a woman who knows her worth.

I have God in my words and the devil in my ear, and a sister who keeps telling me to find my magic.

You load your words as I bare my chest, and this will be the most beautiful death.

I have known love and I have known loss, but in the end, they both looked a lot like you.

I write because suicide is no longer an option.

Too many times I have given this heart away, I am afraid it is no longer mine.

I think I saw you again in the moonlight tonight, and I swear I could taste the hints of it alll.

On paper I have killed you a thousand times but my heart disregards clever words.

He left love letters at my door, and a chalk outline on the highway.

How recklessly we turn from strangers and blindly back to lovers, to nothing.

He was all dangerous eyes and beautiful lies, but I ached. for him to lie to me some more.

Some souls were never meant to be content.

I like you here, between commas, where the only thing you can break now, is my lines.

He was everything I never could, but always wanted to love.

You love so perfectly, as if you have never been told a heart can be broken.

I feel that my environment reflects my belief in the grace and art and elegance of living simply.

Too many goodbyes. This girl has mastered the art of letting go.

My view is that I love what I make so who cares what everyone else thinks. Make art for yourself first, and other people second.

Politics is the art of the possible.

I always make music as an art – it’s never been a product for me.

You would be so proud of me, if you knew of all the ways i’ve turnt my pain into art.

All you need to paint is a few tools, a little instruction, and a vision in your mind.

The function of art is to do more than tell it like it is-it’s to imagine what is possible.
