I wish on one of the stars for divine orchestration and save the rest of them for all of the other girls in the world who will feel like I do tonight.

I kept waiting for the part where I’d finally know who I was — some flashing, neon moment of relief, but it never came.

Standing naked on the beach with all of my secrets between my legs, I look out into the water and up deep into the stars. I beg the sparkling lanterns of light to cure me of myself…

Love is my drug of choice, even if it comes laced with pain and disaster.

Each time that I have felt like I might finally be figuring some things out, life has decided to change the rules and I’ve had to start all over again.

Hope, in anything but myself, is just way too dangerous right now…

We make people into Gods, desperate that they never leave us and hopeful that someday, if we ever deserve it, maybe they’ll love us back even half way.

I lost my innocence very young and it had nothing to do with sex.
