“They silenced her tongue, for they feared how sharp it might cut them.”

My skin will continue to carry your memories, even if my mind wants to forget.

There is strength in breaking and becoming.

I refuse to be strong for them, for I’m allowing myself to embrace my weak.

Beauty now lies behind some of the deepest of scars where pain once called home.

There is magic in shattering, for the most beautiful masterpieces are made from broken glass.

They ask me what it is to be a woman, as if I have to explain what it is to be a human.

I’ve seen far too many people lose their chance, waiting for others to catch up.

Never allow for temporary thoughts take over the permanence of your heart.

Alas, we found ourselves living in a broken world with sad souls but happy masks.

Those who try to break you, come shattered themselves.

She deserved her skies of rainbows, after the many storms her mind endured.

And suddenly days slowed down when I didn’t have you by me.

I’m simply a wildflower unaware of where I’ve come from, but allow me some sun and rain and see me bloom.

My love, we walk amongst a crowd of lonely hearts.

From the dark depths of my soul came an intense passion for prose.

Don’t worry about me for a queen not needs a king to rule.

Shame is the most powerful, master emotion. It’s the fear that we’re not good enough.

Despotic governments can stand ‘moral force’ till the cows come home; what they fear is physical force.

I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me. Failure always made me try harder next time.

I’m intimidated by the fear of being average.

People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.

We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful.

Man cannot possess anything as long as he fears death. But to him who does not fear it, everything belongs. If there was no suffering, man would not know his limits, would not know himself.

Let us fear ourselves. Prejudices are the real robbers; vices are the real murderers. The great dangers lie within ourselves.
