“In love as in life, nothing is really hidden, only ignored.”

What you see is what you get. She’s already magic; she doesn’t need tricks.

Your smile is like a salve for my soul.

It’s not that she’s afraid to fall in love, she’s just afraid to be the only one who falls.

Believe me when I say that I will find endless ways to make sure you know what a prize you are.

She doesn’t need to be alone to be lonely. She doesn’t need to speak to be heard.

Yes, she has more than a few regrets. And if you don’t, then you should probably live more.

There’s a big chasm between him telling you you’re a priority versus him treating you like a priority.

Do not mock a pain you have not endured.

You know what’s sexy? A real conversation.

She refused to let what hurts bruise her memories.

We were dirt poor but we had each other. We didn’t need much to have a lot.

And I swear to you, she was so beautiful I had to keep reminding myself to blink.

Find someone who can hear you even when you’re silent.

Tears are quick to dry and certain pains never heal, sometimes what she says hides more than it reveals.

I miss hearing you smile over the phone.

I could sooner count the stars than list all the things I love about you.

I do not trust anyone who hides in the light and denies darkness exists.

Your flaws tell your story there is no need to hide them.

I hate and love that there’s no hiding who I am from you.

I don’t like my hockey sticks touching other sticks, and I don’t like them crossing one another, and I kind of have them hidden in the corner. I put baby powder on the ends. I think it’s essentially a matter of taking care of what takes care of you.

Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar.

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

I’ve been the person who hides behind people and lets everyone else do their thing, and I’ve been content there.

The heart reveals what the mind disguises.
