Truly, the grief you left me with is more loyal than you.

i think growing up u might get this idea that to demonstrate a true love for someone u must try to fix them. u must be good enough to nullify & annihilate what has hurt them or haunts them etc but rlly its just about. being near someone. not fixing them. rather... tending to someone. being mindful. being present. the gesture is not going to be grand & large & polarizing. love & healing are about being there, even in silence, just being there

I hope all of you wake up tomorrow with better skin and a happier heart

literally feels like a myth that there are people who don't struggle with basic tasks like getting out of bed or going to the shops or seeing a friend for coffee. how does everything not feel like a painstaking chore for them. how do they have the physical and emotional energy every single day

obsessed with characters who were written for one another. like, what do you mean the reason for my existence is to be by your side? what do you mean our divine purpose is to belong to one another, for better or worse?

in another universe we watched many more sunsets together

My love for books, reading, pinterest, candles, listening to music, raining days, staring at moon and coffee is infinite...

tea parties should be more common. let's sit down and enjoy the afternoon with some tea and lemon cookies and maybe wear pretty dresses

romantics be just vibing with their herbal teas and concept of yearning

[thisisreshma]

and I wonder what is a greater wish, this entire world or to be free from it...

i'm sitting on my bed reading. it's almost midnight. it's summer. my window is open and the cool wind is blowing. it's cloudy but i can see the moon shining through the clouds. the crickets are very loud but very soothing. my room smells dusty and warm and no one else exists. the feeling never goes away. everything is quiet and i'm at peace.

despite all my saddened rage i am still just a girl in her room watching her silly little films, reading her silly little books, listening to her silly little playlists

literature girl summer: we're back to finishing a book in a single day

If Aman can leave the hospital and run halfway through New York to meet Naina on the Brooklyn Bridge the least you can do is text me back...

Adulting is so scary. I wanna be a teenager for my whole life.
