the way he looks at me, like he is looking right into me.
I dont see him often, but i have been having a bad week this week and thankfully i got to see him. ah, just seeing him today will make me feel better for a while. When he looks at me i know there is someone in the world who understands me, its so comforting

the thought of rolling into my nice warm bed again at the end of the day and sleep.
My apologizes in advance if the above post makes no sense. I do that a lot.

Those who love me, as alice in chains said, live long enough to repay those youve cost.

People have invested too much love in me I will not see it wasted no matter how much I wanna fall flat on my face.

The possibility that maybe, just maybe one day I might find somebody who won't treat me like the piece of shit that every other fucker does; that they'll see the inside of me and not care about the scars in my soul or on my skin, they'll make me laugh over silly things, and that they'll love me. It's all I want.

The hope that my daughter won't be anything like me or my mother. I just couldn't bear it.
