Cut out all the ropes and let me fall

"I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?"

'Skinny Love' ~ Bon Iver

♥

And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more


"All I see are dark grey clouds, in the distance moving closer with every hour. So when you ask 'is something wrong?', I think 'you're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now. No, we can't talk about it now."

Tiny Vessels ~ Ben Gibbard

The moment that could have changed everything

"It was an accident.
I wasn't looking for it, I wasn't on the make.
It was a perfect storm.
She said one thing, I said another,
next thing I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life in that conversation."

Letter to Karen, Californication

I posted this pre the big blog delete. It made me cry then, it makes me cry harder tonight.

One of the most beautiful television moments, to me, ever.

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions

"Nobody said it was easy,
it’s such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
no one ever said it would be this hard.

Oh take me back to the start."

'The Scientist' ~ Coldplay

This has always been my favourite song of theirs, followed closely by Fix You and Warning Sign.

Tonight I’m regretting something I never thought I’d regret ever. I’d give a lot to go back to the start and not changed things, not said things, not done things. In the end I would have rather kept the friendship over anything else.

I’m sorry I hurt you,
but I’m also sorry you hurt me.
That we hurt each other.

I'm just really sorry, full of regret, feel terribly stupid, and angry. I wish I could take it all back.

I miss my friend.

Womankind


"It's all right for a woman to be, above all, human. I am a woman first of all."

~ Anais Nin

I saw myself in you
