Lang Leav is by far one of my favorite poets of all time. “ Self Love “ is a poem about learning to love yourself. A girl with a terrible past is constantly on the move. The horrors from before still haunt her and have affected her daily. She sought help the best she could and she tried to endure the pain…

The dilemma of types of love.
As for as I remember i am a type of person, which from the start of my life, believe in love. At the same time i have a narrow escape from a nervous breakdown as well due to the so called love. After that biggest tragedy i used to talk to my friend zahid ur rehman that love is not present in…

I think there may be room for step 6 — _offer_ to provide an explanation (without providing it yet!) _if_ the person you’re apologizing wants to hear it / discuss the issue further.
Person 1: “I apologize that I did X — it was wrong, and I understand that it hurt you for reasons 1, 2, 3.Person 2: “thank you for that”…

How do we know what events in our lives still haunt us now? That trigger our deepest emotional reactions when we don’t even realize (or want) them to? And if we’re lucky enough to discover them, how do we let them go so we can heal and move on?

After 15 years, I cut again.

Hablar contigo me hace mal, pero es de ayuda cuando me siento más sola (al menos cuando estamos tranquilos sin odiarnos). Hablar contigo me hace recordar que nadie me ha mirado como tú lo hacías, que ese amigo por sobre todas las cosas desapareció.
Prometi para mim mesma que poderia chover canivetes sob minha cabeça, mas que no meu coração só haveria espaço para o perdão em meu coração.

This topic is something that I find extremely intriguing being a person in my upper 20s from America who has spent time living in Asia.

My Love Is Not For Sale
Recently I have realised that love is nothing but an emotion which is always one sided, the only thing you control is intensity of it. It is foolishness to expect same in return because then you will start trading it. Your love is only priceless till you don’t sell or trade it. I sold it to a girl I…
Relationship a Curse ??
A question that has been going on in my mind for a long time, are relationships of any kind a blessing or a curse. In relationships I mean every form of from Family, Friends, Spouse, Girlfriend etc..

I don’t know how to find my words today. I am having a really hard time and this is unusual for me. I find all the words, I am full of words, I am just so full of all the words in the English language.
Yet, here I am, stumped.
Shoot your shot.
My first love,
I wanted to say something to you. It is important for me to share this with you, even if it means that we are not on the same page.
I can finally utter the words
“I am ready”
In a perfect world I would pick up the phone sometime today and call Kelly and wish her a Happy Birthday.
It has been ten years now since the last time I was able to place that call, hear her sweet voice, find out her plans for her special day.
I am afraid to meet you. This is because I know the moment our eyes meet, the second you open your mouth, the point when you hear…

I made the mistake (or not!) of sitting down when I first got there. Buddy advanced, kept coming up into my lap, and when I was flat backwards was standing on my chest. Hysterical! I tried to take a video but it’s all his long neck floating in and out of range. Won’t forget that one. No wonder…

Is my voice loud enough?
Do i walk that extra mile?
Have i taken a deep breathe into my diaphragm?
Do i look beyond what i have been taught to see?
How fortunate are you and me to live this life?
I burn for you
Like the Midnight Sun,
Invisible to your human eye.
In the darkness you still stumble,
I wonder whether you would notice
Perhaps one day I would dawn on you,
That I was there all along.
I dream of a love so real,Where shooting stars collide,Explosions of pure passion,With deep blue ocean tides,Beauty of…
Empty wine glasses on the coffee table
and I feel the heat,
on the sofa.
The smell of your skin is inebriating me
like the sun in the Negev when it’s twelve o’clock.
i’ll write
for the both of us
i’ll love
as long
as you’re alive
i don’t
feel alone
A race to the finish line
Winds rumbling, cars horning, and crowds screaming, but nothing shall thwarts men from…
stuck on a blank page; countless thoughts flowing through my mind.
my own words fail to fully describe how much love I have for you.
yet silence; incapable to verbalize my state of mind, was more than enough.
you mean the world to me.. I can see now you are perfection, your imperfections make you soo special.
Yet he fucking treats his conquests now like princesses and I was like a fucking piece of furniture.

Nerdy love.
“But I want to hear you say it” she nagged him all the time. His reaction was constant – looking down at her pretentious sad face and smiling. “Don’t you smile like that, it’s not fair you know” she could hardly resist smiling back herself!

Šta se crni u venama mojim, u sve noći rane i sva jutra kasna, čini da se svojih misli bojimjer sa svakom ti se stvoriš — jasna.
remember my lips
dragging along your skin
remember my fingers
grasping your rough edges
remember my eyes
holding your uncertainty
remember our hearts
kissing to our awakening
I wrote this one night when I couldn’t sleep. I was caught in an incredibly toxic relationship. I was so sad, and so caught up in the manipulative behaviour that I believed I was nothing but a shell, nothing important and nothing with value. In the quiet hours when no one could ask me the questions…

like breathing
like eating
like sleeping
like living
like loving
like dying

A TYPICAL INDIAN MARRIAGE STORY
The 20 year old girl is not starry eyed. You see, her parents have always made it clear about what a burden she is and has to be married away soon( and for heaven’s sake, she didn’t take up engineering.. she took up arts….” Arts” which people with less intelligence opt for!)
I did the things you want me to do. Just so great you noticed no more about it. When you only knew it quite lefty to be proud of.
You see, I can’t. You broke the line. You left it all hanging. You made it so hard for me to carry on. Yet you keep on doing the same thing twice…

I don’t have nasties to say about you, prolly cos we show to much respect to one another when we see and we don’t really poke each other much, so the crazies don’t come up. But one thing I’m certain of about you is ummmm……

When I first met you
I thought you were not the one
Time did prove me wrong
A day’s beginning with a beautiful sunrise and a pleasant sunset is all that could be summed up and defined as a great day in life. However, calculating such great days to our respective age number lead us to the results that are disappointing but true.
Thanks for posting this tutorial, Steven! I’ve been looking for a solution for a while.
Now, listen to me carefully. And remember. Let this be carved into every pore of your being.
So it all began when I went to a Chinese restaurant for my friend’s graduation dinner last year and was begging ( seriously oh) for fortune cookies. Everyone thought I was weird but when I got the cookies ( The guy must have been ike “nawa for you. oya chop am” cause he gave me a handful), they…
WEDDING PORTRAITS

Do you have an open heart for the people you come in contact with? If so why and if not, why not. Have you ever thought about this?
If you allow yourself to love everyone regardless of their faults you live life a much different way than to not have an open heart, mind and soul for…
Worthy?
I sit here in thought
Am i not worthy of love ?
Am i not worthy of being enough?
You go with the flow
Wrong.
You shake it up.
