You have to die to become alive and that’s why tragedy seems so beautiful.

You reminded me of a puppy dog. Someone so confused with which way to go. Excited and curious, but stuck in happiness that he seem to can’t move.

Read more: selfless
they ask if i’m sad, if i’m mad
but they don’t realize i’m willing to die again
fate versus teardrops
i’ve held bombs and i have this pretentious feeling of knowing it alli strike the gong and listen to waves through the air
sometimes it feels as if you’re standing there
i can feel your hair, the smell and the way your fingers felt
it was always surreal and for some reason, i could never take the wheelthe occasional howl here and there
i flip a dime and wonder one day if you’ll ever be mine
that maybe i should cut and sign the dotted line
in contrast, my future shouldn’t depict my past
we talked about in time, but i sat and stared into your eyes
looked at your elbow as you said, “i’m getting old”
had no words, only thoughts
i watched as you said, “i’m still here”words came and went and everything i said, i meant
laid on the bed and tossed you the machete
you knew i was ready
i always pled, “please don’t make it messy”you sipped your iced coffee as i smiled and nodded
but i always knew you had the mind of a child
that a life of wild is something i can’t change
which is why i never pulled the mat
and why i never asked you to walk the nile or even drive a half a mile -

I’ve met plenty of beautiful people but I honestly can’t tell you what they look like.

Read more: It’s amazing to me how you can have such a following based on your words alone.. and not a gimmick, or shock value. That’s impressive. Can you give me some insight to staying positive.. and not letting someone validate how I feel about myself?
Thank you so much!
It took a moment to answer this because, well, I’ve never actually taken a moment to think about it. I think a key is to look at all aspects of a situation and who’s causing you to question yourself. There’s always going to be someone that springs doubt and sometimes that’s a parent, lover or friend. But honestly it lies within the insecurities of the giver and if it’s negative, why? Was it a genuine feeling meant to bring positivity or said to be hurtful?
I often find myself doubting others’ opinions which I believe sparks my disbelief in people. It’s probably bad advice to give but… just doubt everyone and the only opinion that’ll end up mattering is yours. But that’s when trust issues arise and that, my friend, is life.
