“Darling remember we are all the same with different coverings.”

With you, I’ve found my permanent home.

Now if only at my worst had I known I was about to be at my best.

And darling, you’re safe here where these walls only want to watch you grow.

Your love is sirens loud and coming to save me.

That night I fought and I fought but your hold was stronger yet I knew even your hands could not hurt me more than your love has.

Your love is not just a feeling but a knowing.

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.

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.

4 am before sleeping and 4 am after waking up hold the magic of two different worlds.

Everyone experiences the same feeling differently. 

Any business plan won’t survive its first encounter with reality. The reality will always be different. It will never be the plan.

There are many statues of men slaying lions, but if only the lions were sculptors there might be quite a different set of statues.

Modern invention has banished the spinning wheel, and the same law of progress makes the woman of today a different woman from her grandmother.

All things excellent are as difficult as they are rare.

Everybody’s at war with different things. I’m at war with my own heart sometimes.

I don’t want to just die a normal death, I wanna be killed twice.
