I once had a garden filled with flowers that grew only on dark thoughts, but they needed constant attention and one day I decided I had better things to do.

There are days I drop words of comfort on myself like falling leaves and remember that it is enough to be taken care of by myself.

Wanting him to come back before anyone notices part of the world has not moved since he left.

Most people don't know there are angels whose only job is to make sure you don't get too comfortable & fall asleep & miss your life.

I don't blame you for everything, she told me. Just the stuff my friends & I can agree on.

You're the strangest person I ever met, she said & I said you too & we decided we'd know each other a long time.

I am only strong enough for a life of partial virtue.
