No Words Can Describe How Excruciating It Feels To Be Perfectly Fine One Minute, But Then Be Drowning

“I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.”

— Jane Austen, Jane Austen’s Letters (via books-n-quotes)

“Deep in my heart I know I am a loner. I have tried to blend in with the world and be sociable, but the more people I meet the more disappointed I am. So, I’ve learned to enjoy myself, my family, and a few good friends.”

— Steven Aitchison (via quotemadness)

“It’s better this way. A little lonelier but better.”

The Signs As Beautiful Lang Leav Poems

Aries:

If you love me

for what you see,

only your eyes would be

in love with me.

If you love me

for what you've heard,

then you would love

for my words.

If you love

my heart and mind,

then you will love me,

for all that I'm.

If you don't love

my every flaw,

then you mustn't love me -

not at all.."

Taurus:

Where are you?” She asked.

“I have been searching all my life.”

“Stop looking for me,” Love replied, “and I will find you.

Gemini:

"Her heart is played like well worn strings,

In her eyes the sadness sings,

Of one who was destined of better things"

Cancer:

"I loved you more than love allowed"

Leo:

"Her bow is drawn to worlds of dark,

where arrows spring and miss their mark—

she'll turn their heads but not their hearts."

Virgo:

It was a question I had worn on my lips for days - like a loose thread on my favourite sweater I couldn't resist pulling - despite knowing it could all unravel around me.

"Do you love me?" I ask.

In your hesitation I found my answer.

Libra:

What is she like?

I was told—

she is a

melancholy soul.

She is like

the sun to the night;

a momentary gold.

A star when dimmed

by dawning light;

the flicker of

a candle blown.

A lonely kite

lost in flight—

someone once

had flown.

Scorpio:

What was it like to love him? Asked Gratitude.

It was like being exhumed, I answered, and brought to life in a flash of brilliance.

What was it like to be loved in return? Asked Joy.

It was like being seen after a perpetual darkness, I replied. To be heard after a lifetime of silence.

What was it like to lose him? Asked Sorrow. There was a long pause before I responded;

It was like hearing every goodbye ever said to me—said all at once.

Sagittarius:

"Forget her tattered memories,

or the pages others took;

you are her ever after—

the hero of her book."

Capricorn:

"It's so dark right now, I can't see any light around me. That's because the light is coming from you. You can't see it but everyone else can."

Aquarius:

"To love is a dare, when hope and despair, are gates upon its hinges"

Pisces:

She lends her pen,

to thoughts of him,

that flow from it,

in her solitary.

For she is his poet,

And he is her poetry.

“If they were meant to be in your life, nothing could ever make them leave. If they weren’t, nothing in the world could make them stay.”

— Lang Leav

Take notes boys

Person: Why on earth do you fall in love with fictional characters rather that real boys?

Jem Carstairs: I can offer you my life, but it is a short life; I can offer you my heart, though I have no idea how many more beats it shall sustain. But I love you enough to hope that you wil not care that I am being selfish in trying to make the rest of my life - whatever length - happy, by spending it with you. I want to be married to you, Tessa. I want it more than I have ever wanted anything else in my life.

Augustus Waters: I’m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we’re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, and I am in love with you.

Maxon Schreave: I want everything with you, America. I want the holidays and the birthdays, the busy seasons and lazy weekends. I want peanut butter fingerprints on my desk. I want inside jokes and fights and everything. I want a life with you.

Will Herondale: Marry me. Marry me, Tess. Marry me and be Tessa Herondale. Or be Tessa Gray, or be whatever you wish to call yourself, but marry me and stay with me and never leave me, for I cannot bear another day of my life to go by that does not have you in it.

Dimitri Belikov: I love you, Roza. I'll always be here for you. I'm not going to let anything happen to you.

Patch Capriano: I missed you, Angel. Not one day went by that I didn't feel you missing from my life.
