1108Reblog "Unrequited love does not die; it’s only beaten down to a secret place where it hides, curled and wounded. For some unfortunates, it turns bitter and mean, and those who come after pay the price for the hurt done by the one who came before."Elle Newmark, The Book of Unholy Mischief

The fictions of my imagination (as it later developed) may weary me, but they don’t hurt or humiliate. Impossible lovers can’t cheat on us, or smile at us falsely, or be calculating in their caresses. They never forsake us, and they don’t die or disappear."Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet37Reblog "I thought about you all the time. I used to pray that you’d live to be a hundred years old. I didn’t know. I didn’t know that you were ashamed of me."Khaled Hosseini (via serialstranger)110Reblog "Little you know of the subtle electric fire that for your sake is playing within me."Walt Whitman, Complete Poems (via violentwavesofemotion)419Reblog
