Quote
That’s just it, though. I don’t want to die. I want to live. I mean really live. I don’t want to wake up when I’m eighty, look back on my life, and realize I spent the whole time waiting for something to happen. I want to know that I did everything I ever wanted to do, or at least tried my best. Yes, there are times when I think I would love nothing more than to just make it all stop, but death isn’t the ending I crave. I want this never ending feeling of overwhelming doubt and depression to end. I want to always be happy and know that what I’m doing in this moment will be a fond memory rather than something for other people to pity. I want to remember all the ridiculous things I’ve done that put a smile on my face. I don’t want to spend my life just trying to get by. I want to be happy.

I hope that someday, somebody wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight, and that’s all they do. They don’t pull away. They don’t look at your face. They don’t try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms, without an ounce of selfishness in it.

Sometimes you have to break up with someone, not because you don’t love them anymore, but because they don’t treat you the way you deserve it.
but it still hurts like hell to let them go. (via written-on-polaroids)

y’all are like “ooh everyone is beautiful” “ooh everyone deserves to feel hot” and then three seconds later you’re making fun of people who cover their acne with makeup and people who haven’t mastered winged eyeliner yet like grow the hell up you don’t get to pick and choose times to be body positive

I wanted you to fight for me. I wanted you to chase after me. But instead you just watched me leave..

Aries use their strong-willed, independent personalities to hide how insecure they truly are.
Taurus have a hard time showing their emotions thus, people are rarely aware of what their true feelings are.
Gemini feel as though they are always expected to put on a happy face for people causing them to bottle up their worries.
Cancer have a fear of trust so they have a hard time opening up to people and sustaining meaningful relationships.
Leo have such loud, attention-seeking personalities to hide that they are actually quite sensitive or shy.
Virgo are very analytical and are influenced in their daily life by their emotions. They constantly deny negative feelings to avoid having to search deeper into their emotions.
Libra typically will change their emotions in order to get others to like them. Therefore, they are often unaware of their own true personalities.
Scorpio are determined and intuitive, causing them to over-analyze everyone which can result in them either pushing people away or distancing themselves when people get in the way of their goals.
Sagittarius lack commitment. They often end up hurting those they are close to and have little care for what their actions cause. They are incapable of having genuine mutual relationships with people.
Capricorn have such structure in their lives and are incredibly hard on themselves because they feel they are never good enough and have an intense fear of failure and disappointing others.
Aquarius can be very blunt because they do not process emotions like most people. Their emotional disconnection from people causes them to constantly question whether they are good enough and if others even notice them.
Pisces fear hurting others and will often build relationships with the wrong people as a result. This causes them to have generally bad luck in life and be very self-undoing.
The Zodiacs are so sad….

I think I understand now why so many artists create out of a place of sadness. Pain is one of the most powerful emotions a soul can feel, and when it holds hands with love, it is intoxicating and overwhelming to the point that such small hearts must project some of that pain into art, music or poetry, or be consumed by it. We can only relieve ourselves of a fraction of that pain though. If we got rid of all of it we would be nothing. Absent. Sometimes our pain, just like our happiness, defines us

no, you always knew one day he’d go. you always knew, don’t you dare say no. he had eyes that you couldn’t trust, to him love meant lust. he held you in one hand and her with the other, to him there was always another. you loved him with all you had, you loved him till it drove you mad. in the middle of the night he was never there, he was in bed with another, his hands tangled in hair. he treated love like a game, so darling, you aren’t all to blame. you just got caught up in big eyes, got caught up in bigger lies. he had you by the heart, he knew that from the start. a pretty little victim to add to his list, just another girl he kissed.
