Favorite Quote:
“I will bring you flowers from the mountains, bluebells,
dark hazels, and rustic baskets of kisses.
I want to do with you
what spring does with the cherry trees.”
-Pablo Neruda

It’s funny, isn’t it,
that even now
looking at old pictures of myself
I can see how broken I was after
And it’s scary
because I wonder if I still look that broken
after all this time
And it’s sad
because when I accidentally glance in a mirror
I know I do

even now
even now.
