“It was when she left him did she then become herself.”

And so she left, whereas then, she realized that just because she was planted here, does not mean here is where she has to grow.

Darling remember we are all the same with different coverings.

They wished you a home full of hurt but you deserve a home full of healing.

To the girl I used to be I appreciate you for a seed won’t bloom without its soil.

She pulled the thorn from her side and turned it into a rose.

Though I sleep with nightmares of the one who hurt me I wake up with the one who heals me.

In the morning she’s my sunshine and at night she’s my star.

I love to watch you become everything she said you couldn’t be.

You ground me as my roots grow I spread like wildflowers all over you.

I’m a prisoner with no charge a sack of bones in varnished flesh walking around hoping somebody will root me.

Our pollen you thought infected us fed our bees and kept us growing.

And even in my waking hours, I still dream of you.

You’re my crescent moon not perfect but beautiful.

I will never again give someone half of me when they weren’t even worthy of a piece.

The moment she kissed me was the moment I let him go.

Our body is our home and how I saw you treat your home I should have known that’s how you would treat my body.

A broken heart bleeds tears.

Losers make promises they often break. Winners make commitments they always keep.

Sometimes if you just take the time to really pay attention and break it down, you can figure out what caused it. And from there, generally, I can pull myself up out of it. And if I can’t, that’s where the support group comes in.

Unfriending me when I didn’t even know we were friends? It’s like breaking wind when you’re home alone. If I can’t smell you, knock yourself out.

I learned that I cannot lay down my hope to people, because people break my heart too.

There’s something about breaking up with someone – you just look hotter than you ever did before.

We were half a summer love but a forever kind of memory.

Promises and pie-crust are made to be broken.
