no, we’re not soulmates. this is not divine intervention. and this is most. certainly not chance. i willed this. i knit the threads of fate myself until they spelled your name.

i love you intentionally. i love you with every bit of conscience i was born with.

– marsadist (via twitter)

sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives i’m not living.

– jonathan safran foer

god i want you
in some primal, wild way
animals want each other.
untamed and full of teeth.

god i want you,
in some chaste, victorian way.
a glimpse of your ankle
just kills me.

– clementine von radics

“I killed a plant once

because I gave it too 

much water. lord, I worry

that love is violence.”

-josé olivarez

“Love is never wasted.

For it’s value does not rest upon reciprocity.”

-c.s. lewis

“I am too young and I’ve loved you too much.”

-fyodor dostoyevsky

Good people pass away;

the godly often die before their time.

But no one seems to care or wonder why.

No one seems to understand

that God is protecting them from the evil to come.

-isaiah 57:1, NLT
