“Each day I wake up and it takes me a few minutes to remember that you’re no longer here and I just cry in bed for an hour because I still can’t comprehend that you’re gone, that I’ll never be able to see your face again, that I’ll never be able to hug you or hear the sound of your laugh. I keep telling myself that it will get easier with time, that this is just how life works,that we are all doomed to die at some point and that we cannot prevent it but I still cannot function properly, I still stumble upon words when I talk about you, I still cry uncontrollably whenever I listen to your favorite song, I still remember the way you used to pronounce words and the way you used to sing all the lyrics wrong, it has been so long and it still feels like I saw you just yesterday, it still feels like any moment now you would call me and we would talk for hours, it still feels like you’re not truly gone, that you’re still here somehow, close to me yet so fucking far, I swear at times I feel like all of this is just a fucking nightmare or some sick twisted joke because no matter how hard I try I can’t seem to let go of you, I can’t seem to accept that the last time I saw you was truly the last time, no matter how hard I try I still can’t seem to understand death or why it took you before you even got to live.”

“Sometimes I wonder. Do I want people to love me or fear me? Is love enough for people respect and unconditional obedience? Is loyalty a thing or is it just a mere word we humans created to make everyone stay in line? Being loved means you are weak Being feared means you are strong Do these 2 sentences bother you? I bet they do. I think they’ re unfortunately The truth As disgusting as it is. Humans are cowards. Once someone respects them and shows that they care they immediately backstab them and proceed to disrespect them while being confident that they’ll never strike back because that person to them is”kind” Another word for dumb and weak Fear is a wonderful word Its very powerful beyond human knowledge Fear can make grown men cry like babes Fear can force you to do things Fear can control you Fear is very powerful. How many powerful countries relied on fear to be the way they are today? How many great men and woman used fear to build their legacy? Its like magic. Like the ones we read about in books. Once you have the authority you literally can have the moon itself on its knees. Fear isn’t an emotion to me fear is a living thing. A creature that controls weak minds. That possesses it like an evil spirit. Fear can move you like a puppet and makes you do stuff you hate. Stuff you rather die than doing. It basically takes hold of your brain and body and makes it its plaything. Then tricks you into thinking this is a work of your mind Tells you that your mind is the one who destroyed you People who are the most affected by fear tend to be so familiar with it To the point that they begin to use it like it used them Make a living out of it Make it useful and even use it to build families and businesses and even empires and kingdoms. That’s how fear reproduces. Sometimes I wish I was fear I’d never lose i’d just win. All the time.”

i used to know you by all that you were
now i only know you by your ghost
your echo, your memory
where you sit at the edge of my periphery
all your colours washed up
taunting me with your lips at a tilt
trailing your cold on the skin of my neck
confessing all your secrets
all your truths
telling me you love me
more than you should
before i’m left.

haunted, in love, alone once again | wt. (via waadtariq)

every moment 
that we spend together
is suspended in time
skin to skin, so infinite
when our hands are intertwined
where you never end
and i never begin
and we’re just two hearts
born in sync
forever kept in time.

together in everlasting stasis, you and i | wt. (via waadtariq)

i didn’t think it was love till i saw glimpses of you in every person i knew.
i didn’t know it was love till every stranger i met, made me want to run back to you.

You are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously.
