I have always been a fire, and everyone I loved walked away as ashes, until I met a phoenix who was born to love flames.

We colour the world,Not with the darkness of our pasts, But with the rainbow of our hope.

You are afraid to let anyone in, but you still leave the door open, hoping someone good will shut the door behind him and throw away the keys.

2a.m and a ceiling stained with question marks.

You are alone,So alone,You speak back to silence.People call it loneliness,You call it solitude,Different words,Meaning the same pain.

You ask me to write you a poem,I pen you an empty ocean,You run away.You ask me who I am,I paint you a breaking sky,You weep in the rain.

I have these knives in my chest that can't become words.

This empty shell holds nothing but the echoes of what was.

My life is a room filled with love letters and goodbye notes.

Why can't we breathe now, In this moment we have breath?

Depression is like waking up and opening the blinds because your plants need sunlight, but it's 8p.m. It's always 8p.m and you keep apologizing for it.

There is still peace left in the world,and only those with beauty in their soul,care enough to be it.

Poetry is a storm asking peace to dance with her.

We write to go on living, after we have died.

If God could transcribe my heart, it'd still read "I love you".

The most beautiful things often stand alone.

I keep breaking things, as if to see what's going on inside of me.

I didn't want to sing.I wanted to be music.
