All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
A Love Letter to No One
Dear _____, I know there is nothing I can do or say that will make you change your mind, make you accept me—accept us—into that void in your chest. I know there's nothing that would make you decide to love me when everything you've ever known or thought says such a love is impossible. So all I can really do now is try to heal the puncture wound you left in the fabric of my being, that separation of fibers once woven so tightly together. And I've been trying.

Fallen
Here I lay, covering my face. I have fallen from the highest of places down to earth. I am powerless to stop or reverse it. Can I ever become what I once was? Do I want to? I ask myself these questions and more as I struggle to figure out how to live. It was so easy before, but now I find even simple tasks a challenge.

Long Distance Relationship
You wake up everyday missing the one you love. Wishing they were here with you. If only time travel was real. Having busy lives, it can be hard to find time to talk to one another. When you're sat at home alone, all you're thinking about is them. You just want to hear their voice, see their smile and touch their skin. You imagine where they are and what they are doing, and it makes you sad to think you are not there with them. You message them, you can try to ring but when your time schedules are so different, it makes it very difficult.

803
Sometimes, a number is just a number... and sometimes it's not. 803!!!! Prior to the summer of 1972, I was just as significant to me as any other number out there. In other words, it meant nothing at all to me. It had no divine significance whatsoever. It was just good ole 803.

The Choice
Have you ever felt the need to run? The need to run and leave everything behind. All the cares in the world are gone. And all the past pains of life have gone away. And to turn around and get a brand new slate. Somewhere new to begin again. A brand new start for your life. Step away from what you have been raised to choose. Take the first step into something new.

"To the Moon and Back"
I want to say before I get into anything substantial that I'm young. I'm not professionally qualified to write much of what I write. I'm not an expert. I'm not a genius, and I don't claim to be some wise philosopher. I've got a lot to learn, and I accept that I know very little. That being said, let's begin.

How You Love Me
It is an incredible thing really. You go out on a cold night in January, never expecting to meet someone you feel you can love endlessly. Maybe I was fortunate, or maybe it was fate. There's no way to be sure. All I know is that I could not be happier with my life now, and it's all thanks to that one night, at a show I had no idea would change my life the way it did.

Confessions to Mr. Perfect
I've kind of been around for years, and each year you got more and more handsome to me but I was never really thinking of you in a romantic way up until maybe 6-7 months ago. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to be that girl. I know you've been hurt, I'm good at reading people, plus other people felt as strongly about it as I did.

Love Untamed
Like most late nineties babies, my first crush was on Troy Bolton, followed by the boy who could get a perfect score playing guitar hero on expert. I longed to be Hilary Duff from A Cinderella Story, drew hearts around Nick on my Jonas Brothers poster, and belted "You Belong with Me" each night until my Taylor Swift CD was scratched beyond repair.

To the First Girl I've Ever Loved
I am a girl who has been confused about a lot of things. I’ve spent years confused about my sexuality, confused about who I am, where I belong and what I deserve, and I’ve always been ok with that, because who really knows the answers to those questions? It’s fine to still be figuring out who you are, it’s ok to always be searching for somewhere to call home but it’s not ok to accept less than you deserve. I have spent the last seven years in relationships which tore me down, trusting people I thought had the best intentions for me, only to have them tear the carpet from underneath me and leave me lying more vulnerable than before… but this isn’t a story about me, or the series of events that led me to where I am now. It’s a post about the girl who saved me. We are often encouraged to first allow time for self-love, because how can we pour our love into others if we have not yet filled our own cup, Francisco states that, “Perhaps we should love ourselves so fiercely that when others see it they know how it’s done.” However, she gives me more love than I could ever give myself. Each day she teaches me what I deserve and shows me what I am capable of giving in return.
