The only sadnesses that are dangerous and unhealthy are the ones that we carry around in public in order to drown them out with the noise; like diseases that are treated superficially and foolishly, they just withdraw and after a short interval break out again all the more terribly; and gather inside us and are life, are life that is unlived, rejected, lost, life that we can die of.  Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (via creatingaquietmind)

Someday you’ll find the right person, and you’ll learn to have a lot more confidence in yourself. That’s what I think. So don’t settle for anything less. In this world, there are things you can only do alone, and things you can only do with somebody else. It’s important to combine the two in just the right amount. Haruki Murakami (via rochelledelaroche)

You might feel cold if I keep my word of love in the water. If I keep it in the sky, it might be under the stars and cloud cover. If I keep it in a castle, I’m afraid someone would take it away. So I keep it always in my heart. Yes or No 2

When you fall in love with the one who belongs with someone else. Acknowledging the reality is painful. The more you know how much they love each other, the more pain you’ll have. And it’d be more painful if you choose to be an intervenor. You have to keep every feeling inside, waiting to be seen that you’re right there.

Perfect.

Falling a thousand feet per second
You still take me by surprise
I just know we can’t be over
I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence
Takes a lot to realize
It’s worse to finish than to start all over
And never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won’t fall
Even if you said I was wrong

I’m not perfect
But I keep trying
Cause that’s what I said
I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely
So please don’t leave
Was it something I said
Or just my personality

Making every kind of silence
It takes a lot to realize
It’s worse to finish than to start all over
And never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won’t fall
Even if you said I was wrong

I know that I’m not perfect
But I keep trying
Cause that’s what I said
I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely
So please don’t leave
Was it something I said
Or just my personality

When you’re caught in a lie
And you’ve got nothing to hide
When you’ve got nowhere to run
And you’ve got nothing inside
It tears right through me
You thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew

I’m not perfect
But I keep trying
Cause that’s what I said
I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely
So please don’t leave
Was it something I said
Or just my personality

I’m not perfect
But I keep trying
Cause that’s what I said
I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely
So please don’t leave
Was it something I said
Or just my, just my
Self, just myself
Myself, just myself

I’m not perfect
But I keep trying
