“Bitter Sweet Symphony” by The Verve on repeat this morning.

Scraped knees lead to tougher skin. Bleeding is not a sign of weakness, just that you are human. Not invincible but incredibly resilient even if the healing process is slow.

If the rear-view mirror isn’t shaking, the music’s not loud enough.

“Older Than I Am” by Lennon Stella always makes me cry.

Lyrics to “The Only Exception” by Paramore, spilled from my own lips, echoing off my shower walls this morning.

“Infinity” by Jaymes Young perfectly reflects the thoughts and feelings in both my mind and heart. I use it to drown out all the other voices, trying to find my own amidst the chaos.

Thank you to the person who nominated my poem, those who voted for it and for the win. Biggest thanks goes out to my muse, my inspiration, ma petite fleur, who makes each day something special, who loves me despite my flaws and who I’ll cherish forever.

“I Turn to You” by Christina Aguilera hitting hard tonight. Also seems my quotes has turned into a playlist. Enjoy.

“Don’t Blame Me” by Taylor Swift only begins to express how I feel when it comes to you.

What a heavenly way to die
What a time to be alive
Because forever is in your eyes
But forever ain’t half the time
I wanna spend with you
I wanna be with you

- “Heavenly Way to Die” by Troye Sivan
