#love poem
I know I am strong. I know I am unique. I know I am once-in-a-lifetime.
I know what I give to others. I know what I bring to the table. I know what I contribute.
I know I go above and beyond. I know I go the extra mile. I know I go to great lengths for those I value.
I know I will be okay. I know I will move on. I know I will fall in love again.
but I’m still going to take a week or two to cry over this mediocre boy. then it’s back to business.
— alhwrites
because I know my worth, I know I am still good enough. even with his rejection.
beauty is undefinable because it is defined differently by everyone.
— alhwrites
to at least one person, whether that is your own self or not, you are their definition of beautiful.
you love,
you get hurt,
and then you love yourself.
— alhwrites
Pablo Neruda - Don’t Go Far Off
Don’t go far off, not even for a day, because –
because – I don’t know how to say it: a day is long
and I will be waiting for you, as in an empty station
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don’t leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
the smoke that roams looking for a home will drift
into me, choking my lost heart.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Don’t leave me for a second, my dearest,
because in that moment you’ll have gone so far
I’ll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying?

“Going through this heartbreak again. Why do I keep having feelings for people that I cannot have? I just gotta be happy for them right? But what about me?”
“It’s funny because I end up loving wholeheartedly those people who have hurt me.”
“My feelings for you are slowly growing, and I want them to stop. I don’t want to ruin the friendship that we have. I don’t want to lose you. But, my heart beats so fast when I’m with you.”
“Ever want to kiss someone randomly? Because that’s what I’m feeling right now staring at you.”
“It’s not the drugs. It’s not because I’m intoxicated. It’s you. I want all of you. I want to taste your sweet lips.”
“It’s been over a year since we let each other go. It’s been over a year since I’ve let go of what could have been my forever. I’d be lying if I said I don’t think about you from to time to time. I should have fought for you, for us. But the truth is, I was a coward. I became afraid of loving you too much and getting hurt in the end. I should have trusted you. I should have trusted my heart.”
“Imagine waking up to someone you love and getting caught lovingly staring at them. I want that. I want that as my simple happy ending.”
“You broke my heart without even knowing it.”
“The thought of you makes me smile. I don’t know what it was about you that captured my attention. But, all I know is I want to unfold you.”
“I never really did tell you how I felt then. But the thing is, I don’t think it would have changed anything. You would have still looked at me only as a friend. And, I’ve accepted that. I’ve accepted that a long time ago because I truly care about you and your happiness. I’m just glad to see that it worked out for you.”
“It was a learning experience. The pain. The hurt. The heartbreak of not getting something that you worked hard for. But it also just means there are other opportunities for you. There are more beautiful sunrises to witness. Use the lessons you learned to be better, to be wiser and to have a more meaningful impact. After all, you are the sun that rises every single day of your life.”
Când am crezut că problemele au dispărut, un gând cu tine a revenit.
I’m dead
“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
~Pablo Neruda~
