let yourself believe in your fairytale…

anyone who tells you the fairytale isn’t real just hasn’t found it yet

anyone who tells
you the fairytale isn’t real
just hasn’t found it yet,
or they settled for less, but that’s
their story, not yours.

let yourself believe in your fairytale.

to truly listen…

I want to really listen to people. - butterfliesrising.com

“I want to really listen to people. Like really, truly listen, and hear people when they speak. They chose me to share that feeling or that thought with, I want to appreciate that. I want the people in my life to be heard.”

go with them…

go with them into the light

and if you are in darkness,
and if they come to you,
and if they reach a hand down
to pull you out,
be sure that if you take their hand
you do not drag them into the dark,
but go with them…

go with them into the light

the way a boy with tattoos can linger…

so slow down your forearm over every inch of your tattoos

the way a boy with tattoos can linger…

the way i’d
trace my fingers
so slow
down your forearm
over every inch of
your tattoos,
just taking in your skin,
letting it tell me all
your stories,
even the ones you
couldn’t say…
i’m terrified i’ll always
miss that.

letting it tell me all

we are not halves of each other, we come here to love the whole of one another

the person you are meant to be with will be fascinated by you…

the person you are meant to be with will be fascinated by you

the person you are meant
to be with will be fascinated by you…

completely and breathtakingly
fascinated by you.
