*AuroraRose*'s Polyvore

~ She turned her face seaward to gather in an impression of space and solitude, which the vast expanse of water, meeting and melting with the moonlit sky, conveyed to her excited fancy. As she swam she seemed to be reaching out for the unlimited in which to lose herself. ~

~ I want someone to pinch me so I can feel something, anything. I'm sick of this numbness, of feeling so alone and outside of everything, but I know it's too dangerous to wake up. ~

~ . . .from the moment I met you, your personality had the most extraordinary influence over me. I was dominated, soul, brain, and power by you. . . .I grew jealous of everyone to whom you spoke. I wanted to have you all to myself. When you were away from me you were still present in my art. . . . Of course I never let you know anything about this. It would have been impossible. You would not have understood it. I hardly understood it myself. ~

~ I'm homesick all the time...I just don't know where home is. There's this promise of happiness out there. I know it. I even feel it sometimes. But it's like chasing the moon - just when I think I have it, it disappears into the horizon. I grieve and try to move on, but then the damn thing comes back the next night, giving me hope of catching it all over again. ~

~ She was beautiful, but she was beautiful in the way a forest fire was beautiful: something to be admired from a distance, not up close." ~

~ I'm not sure what I'll do, but - well, I want to go places and see people. I want my mind to grow. I want to live where things happen on a big scale. ~

~ She had not given a damn back then, sort of like now, only then it had been a style, a way of being, not a diagnosis or demise ~

~ False face must hide what the false heart doth know. ~

~ She didn't know how to love, to give herself to someone, to put herself into someone else's keeping and take him into hers. She didn't trust anyone with her heart - or the darker places in her soul. ~

~ For a moment there, I saw an ounce of promise in you. But you weren't strong enough to follow through on that. I just hope, for your sake, that you one day find it again; that you manage to brush away the rubble in your head and find a way to love, and be loved. It's something you've been without for far too long. ~
