come away with me in the night. i wanna walk with you on a cloudy day in fields where the yellow grass grows knee high. come away with me and we will kiss on a mountaintop. i wanna wake up with the rain falling on a tin roof while i am safe there in your arms.

craving a change

Monday, August 30th, 2010

i’m not quite sure what triggered the shift, but i am officially ready for fall. it happened last week, about the same time the full moon showed her face. all of a sudden, i began craving cold weather and all the simple, yet wondrous, sensations that come with it. snuggling under layers of quilts, movie marathons, finishing the much-anticipated books i never got around to reading this summer, afternoon naps, lazy sundays, bonfires on the beach, lounging on my couch with friends over hot tea and baked apples, hibernating for days in oblivion to the outside world, quiet mornings, shorter days, longer nights, layers of clothes, colorful scarves, warm boots, sleeping in (or at least trying) and tons of sweet love to warm the soul.

he liked to cook and laugh and sing, could start a fire with his hands, fix things that were broken, and explain how to launch things into space.

from the history of love / photo via visualize

life aint always beautiful. sometimes its just plain hard. life can knock you down; it can break your heart. but the struggles make you stronger. and the changes make you wise. and happiness has its own way of taking its sweet time. life aint always beautiful, but it’s a beautiful ride.

days full of wanting. let them go by without worrying that they do. stay where you are inside such a pure, hollow note.

quote by rumi/photos of weekend

the one who slits your throat shares your pain. the one you deceive is the one who designs for you. the one you burden will become your burden. but the one who takes you away from yourself is your friend.

words by rumi

it is okay if no one believes like you. all experience is unique.

dance until you’re sweating and beads of perspiration remind you of life’s best things. the way bodies move genuinely to beats is, after all, gorgeous and affecting.

go to an unfamiliar city and roam the streets.

lonely is a freedom that breathes easy and weightless. lonely is healing if you make it.

if your family doesn’t get you or a religious sect is not meant for you, don’t obsess about it.

if you’re happy in your head, then solitude is blessed and alone is okay.

these moments can be so uplifting and the conversations you get in by sitting alone on benches might have never happened had you not been there by yourself.

this poem, by tanya davis, was sent to me by a very special friend.
