So I know she forgives me, just as I forgive her. Thomas Edison&#039;s last words were: &quot;It&#039;s very beautiful over there.&quot; I don&#039;t know where there is, but I believe it&#039;s somewhere, and I hope it&#039;s beautiful.<br /> --John Green, Looking for Alaska

who i am is not in the definition of ur beliefs<br /> i have every right to keep my head held high and regonize <br /> my beauty both mentally and physically..<br /> you dont define me<br /> you&#039;ve never been webster and you will never be god.<br /> i am a complex being and<br /> my true beauty lies in my state of mind.<br /> physically, i can be all that<br /> but i want ur eyes to see my mind,<br /> your ears to hear my thoughts<br /> and regonize my knowledge<br /> i am poetry...<br /> feel the words that slips off my lips<br /> the emotion that drips off my ink<br /> embrace the aura in every syllable that is written.<br /> Now watch me bring my emotions into your imagination.<br /> it is who i am, i am poetry.

“i want to apologize to all the women i have called beautiful<br /> before i’ve called them intelligent or brave<br /> i am sorry i made it sound as though<br /> something as simple as what you’re born with<br /> is all you have to be proud of<br /> when you have broken mountains with your wit <br /> from now on i will say things like<br /> you are resilient, or you are extraordinary<br /> not because i don’t think you’re beautiful<br /> but because i need you to know<br /> you are more than that” <br /> ― rupi kaur
