They say all's well that ends well, but I'm in a new Hell
Every time you double-cross my mind

You kept me like a secret, but I kept you like an oath.
Taylor Swift, 'All too well'

“You became like coffee, in the deliciousness, and the bitterness, and the addiction.”

When Tahseen Anam said,
" And we fall for those who are not even there to hold us"
I felt it through and through.
I'd rather sit in silence with you than have thousands of conversations with other people.
"Aren't we all waiting to be read by someone, praying that they'll tell us that we make sense?"

"I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim."

I may look okay but deep down I really need to recreate the scenes from my favourite books with someone.

The hopeless romantic urge to look at the moon and stars, forever.
People who get excited about sunrises, sunsets, a sky full of stars, the moon, deep connections and heart to heart conversations are my kind of people.
"Break my heart and you'll find yourself inside."

To have someone who understands your mind and matches your vibe is a whole different level of intimacy.
"I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art— write or draw or build or sing or live, as only you can."

Hand kissing and forehead kissing are acts of the most sacred, high-romance and I think we need to revive these.
Deep down, inside every reader girl, is an insatiable hunger to be loved as fictional men love their girls and it increases evermore as they keep on reading.
Surviving life nowadays only with books, coffee and tons of daydreaming about my own fictional world.
It's so out of the way how a single person is missing for you and the whole world feels empty.
What I need in today's hookup culture is the kind of person who ties my shoelaces or waits for me to tie 'em while the whole world moves ahead.
Why is it always 'ILY' and never 'You have bewitched me; body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. And wish from this day forth never to be parted from you.'
