dreaming out loud

If you’ve ever had that feeling of loneliness, of being an outsider, it never quite leaves you. You can be happy or successful or whatever, but that thing still stays within you.

— Tim Burton

“by being beautiful yourself. Beautiful in every way I could ever think of or ever imagined. You make me wish that everything was as beautiful as you. It tells me that a world that creates something so beautiful must be beautiful itself.”

the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.

it’s sad that we don’t even talk anymore.

it was my twenty-fourth birthday, and i knew that the best part of my life was already behind me.

and you don’t want to look much closer, because you’re afraid to find out all this hope you had sent into the sky by now had… crashed.

It’s not easy to break, even when it ought to be broken.
