This One

This one’s for the girl who taught me microeconomics over the phone at 12 am. The girl who showed me what it means to have faith in things working out. The girl who taught me to never lose hope. This one’s for the girl who inspires me to be an amazing human being. The girl […]

Too Busy

Unpopular opinion: When someone tells you they are too busy, it’s not a reflection of their schedule. It’s a reflection of your spot on their schedule. I don’t know, is it just me? I understand that people have busy lives, but there’s always been a part of me that believes that you are never too […]

The Universe

So I have this theory. I believe that the universe has a plan for each of us and that whatever happens to us, good or bad, happens for a reason. Hear me out okay? What if where you are in life right now is where you’re supposed to be? What if every single choice you […]

Perspective

I was cautious. I was careful. I tried not to bring up dreams of a future because I didn’t want to scare yet another one away. But then you go and tell me about your dreams, and how you can see the two of us running around on the beach ten years later. You invite […]

Go Love Yourself

I used to struggle with my body image for as long as I can remember. I’d constantly blame myself for not being “thin” enough or “tall” enough or “pretty” enough. I would wake up every morning and the first thing I’d think about is what to wear to make myself “look thinner”, to cover up […]

Don’t settle for one word replies and unanswered phone calls Stop settling for days without magic, for kisses with no spark and for hugs with no warmth. Stop settling for disrespect […]

No More Small Talk

I don’t want small talk. Don’t just tell me you’re fine. Don’t just tell me you’re doing well. Tell me why you love the colour red. Tell me your biggest fears. Tell me why you love the smell of rain at night. Tell me what your name means. Tell me about the time you laid […]

Find Yourself First

Find yourself first. Find what keeps you up all night. Find what you’re like with no sleep. Find what you can’t stop thinking about. Find what makes your smile wider. Find what makes your heart happy. Find what makes your head spin. Find what drives you crazy. Find what makes you mad. Find what makes […]

To The Boy Who Broke My Best Friend’s Heart

Did it make you happy? Did it make you happy to see tears streaming down her face? Did it make you happy as you led her on for months, only to break her heart in the end? You know I tried to give you a chance. I really tried. The romantic in me was always […]

To Unrequited Love

It sucks doesn’t it? Watching the one you love give his love to someone else. In your mind, he’s making a mistake. Because you’re the only person he should be with. It’s funny. You never actually told him how you felt. But would it even have mattered? One part of you tells you that what […]
