“Youth must be the worst time in anybody's life. Everything's happening for the first time, which means that sorrow, then, lasts forever. Later, you can see that there was something very beautiful in it. That's because you ain't got to go through it no more.”
― James Baldwin

“My wish for you:
to be alone without being lonely
to reflect without regret to anticipate without fear to love without dependence to give without expectation to grow without attachment to embrace yourself without exception to be here now without distraction to live joyfully without condition to choose yourself without guilt, shame, doubt, or hesitation.”
― Melody Godfred, Self Love Poetry: For Thinkers & Feelers

“Eventually something you love is going to be taken away. And then you will fall to the floor crying. And then, however much later, it is finally happening to you: you’re falling to the floor crying thinking, “I am falling to the floor crying,” but there’s an element of the ridiculous to it — you knew it would happen and, even worse, while you’re on the floor crying you look at the place where the wall meets the floor and you realize you didn’t paint it very well.”
― Richard Siken
