When you love someone, every inch of their skin matters, every sigh, every look towards or away.

If you live from your heart, your heart will break every day, every second. From beauty and lack of beauty. From love and lack of love.

What people don't realize is how much the darkness and light are in love with each other.

Tell me what you're more afraid of, losing your heart or your mind, and I will have a sense of who you are.

Imagining a gun that doesn't contain bullets but all the words you want to say to someone that you've been afraid to say.

Writing is like running away from home -- towards home.

Deep connections are so rare, they immediately feel sacred. And they're unforgettable.

Art is a sane way to express craziness.

Humans are broken pieces of the universe.

I have a weird sense of humor. And a weird sense of wonder. And especially a weird sense of love.

Some things have to be all or nothing. Like breathing.

lost + lost = found

Freedom is not needing to lie about anything.

loneliness is poetry; solitude is philosophy

When the heart says all or nothing, and the mind says now or never.

To beautifully confess the most fragile things, and to have those things treated with curiosity and care.

A novel is rain. A poem is dew.

Shattered, but not into pieces. Into poems.

I like the words that feel like silence and the silence that feels like words.

There would be no beauty, no philosophy, no religions, no music, if the human heart couldn't break.
