is it easy to love and be loved?

patience, persistence, pain never will outweigh the blossoming feeling of butterflies in the garden of your heart and the healing it does to your soul.

love, as it is, requires the greatest seen effort as well as those that are too menial to be noticed.

to yearn for the warmth of contact, and embrace to never let go

to catch oneself longing for the presence, and endure the pain of waiting

to ponder what the world offers, and to give a piece of the earth

to care and nourish the wellbeing, and to wish well on the wanders

to continue what is good and kind, and to push through the madness of emotions.

to live life as your own, and to live life being theirs

“I knew I’d follow him anywhere. When my sister used to talk about being in love, she said it felt like someone wrapping you inside of them. And that’s what I felt like now, like slowly I was being wrapped inside of him, inside his eyes, inside his voice, inside the way he talked about things.”

— Jaqueline Woodson, If You Come Softly

“Even now, as broken as you may feel, you are still so strong. There’s something to be said for how you hold yourself together and keep moving, even though you feel like shattering. Don’t stop. This is your healing. It doesn’t have to be pretty, or graceful. You just have to keep going.”

— Maxwell Diawuoh

Everytime after I do something, my mind and heart yearns for your presence.

Do I need you that much?

Is that love or is it stupid?

“When I say, I love you, it’s not because I want you or because I can’t have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I’ve seen your kindness and your strength. I’ve seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are.”

— Joss Whedon

I want to be loved, to be spoiled by affection and words that blooms in one's heart.

I want to feel the touch and warmth of an embrace full of care, a tight hug if you will.

I want you.

I look at you and remind myself that you, by your existence, has reminded me of the moon, my bed, cats, books, and patience.

You remind me to take my time and to seek comfort in the mundane and the beautiful

Just as you remind me of such comforts in life, you embody them.
