Friends who listen and actually care

Soap candies

Being able to lock my bedroom door and suddenly be in my own world

My journal, which is like a friend and hugs me and listens to me for as long as I need

Candle light

Comfy clothes that are like putting on a hug

The comfortable mess in my room where everything is just as I like it, and *I* know where everything is

The smell of clothes just out of the drier

Reading everyone's happy things, and then remembering your own when you're feeling down.

Silence in the mornings.

Cornflakes.

My little brother.

Getting to sleep in.
I'm tired of laughing and I'm tired of crying
Tired of failing and tired of all this trying
I want to do some living
Cause I've done enough dying
I just wanna dance
I just wanna f**king dance

Getting mail that is wonderful news

Watching a movie that was a childhood favourite

A really great book

The perfect cup of tea to drink while reading the really great book
When faced with my demons
I clothe them and feed them
And I smile, yes I smile
As they're taking me over
