Running away from pain I cant seem to escape It scares me that I cant avoid feeling this way Sometimes im desperate to find relief so I grab my knife and take it with me...

&ldquo;He&rsquo;s not perfect. You aren&rsquo;t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn&rsquo;t going to quote poetry, he&rsquo;s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don&rsquo;t hurt him, don&rsquo;t change him, and don&rsquo;t expect for more than he can give. Don&rsquo;t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he&rsquo;s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don&rsquo;t exist, but there&rsquo;s always one guy that is perfect for you.&rdquo; <br /> ― Bob Marley

All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy. <br /> Scott Alexander <br /> <br /> A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day. <br /> Emily Dickinson <br /> <br /> Not knowing when the dawn will come I open every door. <br /> Emily Dickinson
