love
All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
New Beginnings
For the umpteenth time, I've had to remind myself that there is no one; no one who can do for me, what I can do for me. Foolishly enough I sometimes indulge in the fantasy of a better life, or whatever 'better' means in comparison to the life I lead now. I sometimes let myself think about my future being shared with someone else. Someone else who, as the fairy tales and cheesy rom-com movies would tell you, loves me for me. Then, when the glamour fades, I'm left with the numbing reality that no one can do for me, what I can do for me.

To the Man that I Will Always Love
Have you ever been in love with two people? Do you believe that it’s even possible? This story is about the guy I will always love. Today, I am 23 years old and madly in love with my boyfriend Marco that I have been on and off with since I was 16. Yet, I will always hold a spot in my heart for Don. Don and I dated when I was 14 years old going into my freshman year of high school. We only dated four months but we had a connection that I have never had or seen other’s have. He was passionate about life, fought for everything he wanted, the most truthful man, and one of a kind. We didn’t speak for the rest of high school and we both dated others but he was still always on my mind. When Valentine’s Day came around I would be his secret admirer, I would dress extra cute on the days we had the same lunch, and I would walk the long way to class just to pass him. I had lost the greatest person. I never thought that he would give me the time of day again but years had passed and I took a chance and messaged Don on Facebook. He wrote me back and we had actually became friends and had met up at the movies. Gosh, seeing him again and use being grown and mature was so nice. I remember us meeting at the movies and having a great time. He laughed the whole time. Till this day I regret not kissing him goodbye or even telling him that I missed him all those years.

A Moment Inside the Mind of a Guarded Woman 💪🏻🧠💔
Being a guarded woman means you have strength, it means seeing all things clearly, it is having a free spirit. It means having the ability to love harder than anyone can ever know... but in reality it also comes with this huge toll.

An Open Letter to the Boy Who Changed My Life
Dear Sweetheart, You showed up at exactly the time when I needed someone the most. My whole life has been a pit of sadness. I was overcame by a darkness that consumed me. More than consuming me, I was the darkness. I’ve had to fight through so much all throughout my existence and I was at a point when I couldn’t handle anything else going wrong. I’d struggled through my mother abandoning me, my drunken father, an abusive relationship, a failed marriage, and self-loathing just to name a few things. I was honestly ready to give up. I self harmed just to numb the emotional pain that I was feeling. But then you came along and changed everything.

To the Man I Love
To start this off, I like to write about topics, things, and people that make me happy and help me to feel inspired. It is the reason why I titled this the way it is. If I plan on writing here more often then I should get comfortable talking about my personal life and the people that impact me the most. This article is specifically dedicated to the man I fell for about five months ago as a reminder that no matter what hardships that we go through together I truly do love you and I do not plan on going anywhere.

Heartsick
I think my heart is sick… and I don’t mean in the classic term of being “heartsick.” I don’t miss someone, specifically, but the feelings that they used to awaken in me. I miss the feeling, of being connected, understood, and heard. There is a warmth in my heart that is gone since that love has left me. I believe that my heart is sick because it needs love.

Who Ever Said Love Was Fair?
Love is easy, at least, that's what they say. I've thought over and over about what I want out of life, about who I want in my life. In an ideal world, it would be as simple as that, I'd know what I want and I'd go for it. But what if you don't know what you want? Or what if, worse, you do know what you want? What if what you want is bad for you, bad for other people? At what point do you cut your losses and just go for it?
