“The grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.” — Allan Chalmers (via gatekeeper) (via quote-book)
“And I can’t shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would’ve been confused but
I wanna see you again”
— Sand in my shoes, Dido (via kari-shma) (via quote-book)

“I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions. ” — Augusten Burroughs (via kari-shma) (via quote-book)
They speak of love and loss
they say I’ll find myself
that everyone hurts
just like me
I’ve taken too many breaths
shut my eyes too many times
to a darkness
that won’t fade away
Beat slow please slow
my heart that rages
boiled blood that bleeds
not solely for me
My eyes will hold
silent secrets shared
promises that soon
pain will wash away
Still I dream
held in slumber’s kiss
of when the sun
will rise again
I fear not the night
nor my trembling shake
I feel your eyes
watching me
Someday I’ll speak of love and loss
Someday I’ll find myself
I know not anyone hurts
at all like me

I must wander without you,
You are worth the wait.”
