“The night lies above me as still and silent as I with the distant noise of an occasional car engine acting as the only interruption. It’s too cloudy for my breath to be stolen by the typical scatter of stars as there is only one tonight. This singular star does its best to comfort me inbetween games of hide and seek with the clouds- poking its twinkling head out to remind me I’m not as alone as I feel. The frosty air does its best to envelope my tired bones but each shiver leads me to crave the warmth of your body next to mine even more. There is only one thing colder than the air tonight: the fact that there is more chance of being loved by the stars than you.”

“i dream of us being together. me and you laughing and smiling. driving through the city listening to music. being able to do homework together in silence because we’re just simply enjoying each other’s company. sitting down watching the sunset and laying down looking up at the stars. being able to look at you and think to myself about how lucky i am to call you mine.”
— excerpt from a book i’ll never write #14 // but it will only ever be a dream

“I can’t tell you her name, but I can tell you that I have dreamed about her lips, and how they would feel against mine. I have dreamed about what her fingertips feel like against my skin; would they be cold? Warm? I can’t tell you her name, no, but I can tell you that there are stars in her eyes, and I want to map out every constellation.”

“i hope one day you can see the beauty in this world. in life. it lies in the kindness of people, in art, music, youth and also in the wistful tenderness of the elderly. in belly laughs, nice smells and comfort blankets. eye contact and delicate touches. you’re alive as ever, have courage and are lovely - that means, that you, just like everyone else, are capable of experiencing this happiness and extravagance of life.”

“you can fall in love with many things, with her. the way that she smiles when she sees me come in or how her hair smells like honey when she uses her favourite shampoo. the way that the stress falls from her shoulders when she hears the rain tapping on the window; or how she sings so beautifully and honestly in the shower - convinced that no-one can hear her. the way that she dances just for me - or how she kisses my head as she pulls me closer and closer to her chest. and despite all of these, my favourite thing to love is the way that she carried on moving mountains when others didn’t dare to climb.”

“before i met you, i used to be able to close my eyes and see stars. i used to be able to look in the mirror and day by day accept how i look. i used to be able to laugh so hard i had tears streaming down my face and my stomach sore. i used to be able to sit in a room quietly and in content. i used to be able to smile genuinely. when i met you, i made you the sun, and i a planet, and i revolved my whole world around you. i made your words into the only way i saw myself. i made your jokes the funniest and others’ boring and even i couldn’t tell when my laugh was authentic. i made your last words to me the only thing that i could think of and couldn’t concentrate on anything else. i made your emotions control mine. after i left you, i began to close my eyes and see the entire galaxy within myself. i began to realize my worth and let my beauty within shine through. i began to laugh more and laugh harder to the point i could barely breathe. i began to fill my silences with music and singing at the top of my lungs or thoughtful words on paper. i began to feel genuine happiness.”
