I’m very observant and often quiet.
Some mistake that for weakness.
But I’m kinda like a bone collector,
gathering the bones you drop over time.
Then one day I’ll piece them all together,
finally see you’re not for me and leave.

Quotes for the Soul: Self Care
I know this “self care” vibe is trendy now but I really like myself. I really enjoy being by myself because self love could never feel lonely. In a perfect world, I’d turn my phone off for days and just zone out. I’ve mastered the sort of inner peace that makes me run away from anything or anyone that disrupts it. So keep following the “self care” trend. I hope you accidentally fall in love with yourself in the process. It’s truly a gift.
“Eat like you love yourself. Move like you love yourself. Speak like you love yourself. Act like your love yourself. Love yourself.” — Tara Stiles
Wants
I want a forever partner more than I want the
idealistic marriage we all get lost trying to find.
I want a kind love more than I want a lover.
I want someone who truly loves themselves
because I’ve learned one can only love me
to the extent they honestly love themselves.
Enough
It’s OK to say NO after he finally says yes.
It shouldn’t have taken years to see your value.
You don’t have to go through tons of bullshit
just to be proven loyal, deserving or otherwise.
You were more than enough from day one, sis.
Vibes
Maybe my memory has betrayed me but
you and I were never this calculated.
We would literally just chill and
vibe on whatever, wherever…
Mostly in bed or on the couch because
we’re both homebodies, yet still it was easy.
Can we go back to that?
Can we not overthink us?
Can we just get back to good vibes,
grandiose laughs and great sex?
