“If there’s anything I’ve learnt so far, it’s that to love others, you should give them space to breathe.”

I got used to temporary things. I’m afraid I might not want anything permanent at all.

I want to fold you into my book, like a petal, so that you’d never leave.

No matter how astray the becoming might be, I’ll never search for the old in me.

Perhaps their voices never leave us and we spend our lives fumbling for quiet corners where we can hear them most.

Lay your head on mine and let me breathe you instead of air.

Refrain from giving pieces of yourself to those who get close, for people leave, and gifts that are given cannot be returned.

I’ve experienced departure far too much to have the courage and call anyone my own.

You’ll roam the world and come to realize: It’s all in you, to be free or not to be.

We reshape our memories into uglier versions because it’s hard to forget them while they’re still beautiful.

This is face blindness, but not really it. Among all the faces I see, I could only see yours.

I’ve always had a fear of endings, but it comes as relief to me that among all the dying things, I am one too.

Where once there were a few houses between us, now there are seas.

I close my eyes and I see you. I open them, and I’m blind.

You float underneath my eyelids – a dream I never seem to get enough of.

Of all the lies I’ve lived, and all the lies I’ve been told, the lies I told myself hurt the most.

And it scares me that if I ever get my wings, I might not know where to fly to.

For he has conquered death, with the gift of His last breath. Go now, and share the news, the Savior beckons you.

If it doesn’t open you like love, kiss you like rain and leave you breathless, wanting more, it isn’t love.

He breathed life into me and then left me suffocating.

I love the woman I have become today. The one who breathes fire and douse it all at the same time.

Breathe me in let me become your favorite memory.

I’m the air you breathe. Feel me inside you, each time you inhale.

Allow yourself some time to breathe, release and refill.

Often all we can do is breathe, even that can be hard sometimes.
