There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves; it is not my nature. My attachments are always excessively strong.

We all have our secrets that we keep because we do not want to hurt the people who love us.

Did you know,
that if a tree falls in a forest
with no-one to hear it,
it does not make a sound?

It is not philosophy,
it is physics. 
I won’t try to explain the science
except to say:

Did you know,
that if a heart trembles,
shudders,
contorts,
f r a c t u r e s,
with no-one to hear it,
to acknowledge it,
to heal it,
to love it,
it does not make a sound?

Did you know,
that sadness,
gone unheard,
unseen,
ignored,
(and ultimately)
unknown,
turns back in on itself?

( purple blemishes
on smooth palms, 
alcohol shriveled livers,
nicotine stained fingers, 
midnight circles
under moonlight eyes,
porcelain smiles
and pillow cries. )

Did you know,
that if a heart
pumps blood,
into a body that nobody 
cares for,
treasures,
protects,
that heart
will cease to pump blood
at all?

Did you know, 
that silence,
absence, 
distance,
ambivalence,
kills? 

I think you knew.

I wonder, did you care?

Her attitude is based on how you treat her. Treat her right and she’ll treat you better. Do her wrong and she’ll do you worse.

The person who really LOVES u sees what a mess u can be, how moody u can get, how hard u are to handle, but still wants u in their life.

Its funny how you can do nice things for someone all the time and they never notice, but if you make one mistake, it’s never forgotten.
