“ A lot of men want a woman to mother them. They get with a woman and all they do is regress to the point where you might think he might not be capable to take care of himself at all. I don’t want another mother. I want a woman. I want to rise to the occasion. I want to learn and bask in your glow. I want to protect you and do whatever I can to give you strength. There is no twist to this. I am not about to blow my brains out. You have not cut me up like others have. It’s just this. I want to love you with everything in me. I need your help because I don’t know anything about it. I am suspicious and ready to leave and hit the cold road for the frozen dawn. I am just going to trust you with everything in me. I see now that it’s the only reason to be here. After kissing you, I cannot remember what it was like to kiss any other woman. At this point I am not sure if I ever have.
Henry Rollins (via thatkindofwoman)
How to Be a Romantic
“ I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it — to be fed so much love I couldn’t take any more. Just once.
Haruki Murakami (Norwegian Wood)
*Thank you for filling me up. I only need this once, continuously overflowing, I only need you.
“ When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.
Oscar Wilde
“ I met in the street a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, his cloak was out at the elbows, the water passed through his shoes, - and the stars through his soul.
Victor Hugo, French writer
As a ninja, I stole hearts silently in the night.
As a pirate, I take them by force.
(Me, age 10.)
If I still believed…
…what would I post?
The times I don’t seek you out…
…are the times I need you the most.
Unfortunately this makes no sense in retrospect. Feelings are not always on my side.
Let sorrowful longing dwell in your heart.
Never give up, never lose hope.
Allah says, “The broken ones are my beloved.”
Crush your heart. Be broken.
- Shaikh Abu Saeed Abil Kheir, aka Nobody, Son of Nobody
