I could hear it in your voice the last time we spoke. You’ve always been able to see into the deep dark crevices of my mind and soul
I’ll always remember that look on your face. You saw me. You’ve always seen me. And I think that’s all that anyone wants.
Benjamin Alire Sáenz
“part of me is mad that i wrote you into my stories. because i can no longer read them without falling in love, and breaking my heart at the same time. but part of me is so glad i did. because it reminds of how beautiful our love was, even if it destroyed me.”
i still miss you (via baby-imyoursx)
It’s easy to see now, you were begging me to love you and I was teaching you to unlove me…
I let you ruin me, and the worst part is I’d do it all again without a second thought. I’d beg for it.
I’ve learned now that there is no getting over you. There’s living with your memory or being haunted by it. I’ve let years go by with you stuck to my back like a tumor I couldn’t rid. But that isn’t what you are. You’re a piece of me. A piece that I protected so dearly I lost sight of the reasons I protected it. I’ve learned that every single person I’ve ever loved I’ve written their names on pieces of me to remember forever. I wrote those names down and treated them as if they were punishment. But it isn’t and it never was. I’ve been lucky enough to know what love feels like in so many different ways. I’ve forgiven every heart break except for yours. I’m sorry I’m still working on it, but then again you don’t want my forgiveness anymore. You’ve found happiness in such a familiar place it actually took the breath out of my lungs when I saw it. I can’t deny that it felt like you punched me in the face, but I left you to find happiness else where, how can I be mad that you did ? You don’t read these words anymore. I don’t blame you for not. But I feel like you’ve always been a safe place to put feelings I don’t quit understand. I’m trying to find the writer you once loved, this time without you. She’s only ever come out for you to see, so I will learn to move on in the same place I fell in love, writing to a ghost that has never been on the same page as me. Because here those feelings can live forever without having to feel like their clawing at my ribs. Here I can release them to be finally free of.
Two souls are sometimes created together and in love before they’re even born.
F. Scott Fitzgerald; The Beautiful and Damned (via sunsetquotes)
“You are the only one, the only love that I have ever been able to write about.”

Somewhere, there’s a version of us that survived.
My biggest regret will always be not hitting you that night. Not kissing you that night. Not fighting for you that night.
You said you’d always leave a light on for me … you must of forgot to pay the electric bill.
