“My insecurities gave you too much power over me/ you were the catalyst to my healing/ but you are not the healer/ I am.”

I do not feel ready to plant my roots on this earth without first drinking the water from the rivers of the world.

Darling, look how far you’ve come do you truly believe you are unable to rise from the ashes and grow new wings.

Those places will never be the same they are forever intertwined with the thought of you.

I stayed with him hoping to discover a remedy to my pain.

Darling, let go I promise you will never want to carry that pain again.

Her name is foreign on my tongue, I repeat it over and over and over in my head hoping one day it will sound familiar.

I was searching for relief in places I would never find peace.

She bloomed from the depths of darkness through the cracks she was brought to life by the sun.

I am ready to love the pieces that are weighing me down.

We were playing hide and seek with our shadows simply pretending to grasp for love we could not find in ourselves.

My mind is entangled in the thought of you.

She wanted someone that could swim to the depths of her ocean and not drown in the intensity of her soul.

I feel at home in places I’ve never been.

I am trying to find a way through this dark forest.

An endless fire burns within me whispers in my ear and encourages me to grow past what I can see.

When will the leaves begin to change in this body of mine?

The cure for pain is in the pain.

Never look back. If Cinderella had looked back and picked up the shoe she would have never found her prince.

Generosity. Bring all you have. It’s ok to be brave and afraid at the same time.

I’ll be back.

Every man’s happiness is his own responsibility.

Worry is a waste of imagination.

It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.

Travel brings power and love back into your life.
