if they do not treat you well and you want them, you have to ask yourself if it is them that you want — or proof that you are lovable

and is your shame helpful? is it inspiring goodness and change? or is it keeping you frozen in time unable to move on and be everything you have expanded to be?

Savannah Brown, from Closer Baby Closer; “Recorded talismans of intimacy”

people never understand that like. Traumatic things will in fact continue to effect you even when they're not happening to you. "It's not going to happen to you anymore" cool I am still in agony because it happened, it's called POST traumatic stress disorder for a reason......

‏I wish I could visit you in your dreams and spend time with you there

I keep looking for you everywhere I hope I never find you

*going through a really hard time* i will survive this but not unaltered

To the person reading this, I hope tonight treats you gently, and that tomorrow looks brighter.
