"Why do you always leave?

Won’t you always be there with your hands outstretched,waiting for me to come home?

But what if I must leave too?

But I love you.

But what if I must leave, first?

But I will starve

But what if I find another bird?

The loneliness would kill me.

Then why won’t you stay?

Because I have only ever known the sky, and you are so beautiful that touching you hurts, knowing that one day - you may die and leave me here, with only this blue: with only this endless, endless blue."

- Shinji Moon, “The Conversation Between the Bird and the Hand” (via lingeringchai)

The air in a child’s home should be a haven of warmth where comfort is a welcome mat, the air heavy with affection, not the sound of money and inadequacy bouncing off the walls and onto their skin:

plaguing them with resentment that will follow them until they understand.

Or not understand, but until they are strong enough to accept that they can’t change who their parents are

or how they act

or how they love.

"What do you say when you’re not enough to make someone stay? What do you do when you meet the love of your life and realize it’s all about timing? How do you accept that no matter how perfect you are for each other, circumstances get in the way? How do you compete with that kind of fate?"

"You have
my heart.
And I could
analyze
that —
but I
won’t.
For it
stands
so
unbearably
complete
on
its own."

- Frida Kahlo, from The Diary Of Frida Kahlo: An Intimate Self-Portrait (via violentwavesofemotion)
