Quotes

  • jailakeithhas quoted7 years ago
    I feel too much, I love too much, and
    I always give people the best of me,
    even when I know they don’t deserve it at all.

    I Love You More
    I know you’re broken
    and I don’t say this just to say it,
    but I know you’ve been through hell and back
    and it has changed you.
    You’re not the same person I once knew
    and it’s not that I want to fix you
    or save you
    or anything that has to do with that.
    It’s more like
    I will accept you
    and take your flaws
    for more than what they are.
    If you’re a hurricane
    then I’ll be the sea
    that gives you the strength
    to go on.

    Sadness
    And it is sad how people come and go.
    It is almost too beautiful to bear,
    the way people gently come into our lives
    to leave just as softly.
    But that’s life, right?
    We make memories with other people
    to remember them once they’re gone.
    We exchange experiences and expect to learn
    something valuable in between.
    The same way we have to learn to let go
    and the same way we have to learn
    how to embrace change as it comes.
    And that’s what makes this life beautiful,
    for it is the coming and the going that makes us
    who we are.
