You came into my life like a hurricane and I was a flower in desperate need of rain. You were there through the darkness, the fear, the uncertainty, but I was too scared and naive to jump. You’re all my heart ever talks about & I can’t quiet the whispers, but you’re just a thought. You’re not a reality and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss you. I miss the simple nights […]
To be lonely is to feel an ache in your heart, but to be alone is to be strong and independent. I’m going to teach you an incredibly important lesson ladies and gents, about being content with being alone. When you’re alone you are 100% yourself, so be fun, creative, and brilliant, and steer clear of sadness, my loves. When I was growing up there were times when I had little to no friends. I […]
She sat awake in bed watching an inticing drama, and sipping on expensive red wine. She wore a black negligee and her face was natural. Beach curls framed her soft face, which was sun kissed from a day horseback riding. She leaned over and applied a pale, pink lip gloss to her lush lips.

A smile could change an entire day, so she smiled often. She combed through her […]
I was just five years young when the New York we once knew, vanished. The skyline was changed permanently by a disgusting act of hatred. I remember each second of that terrifying day; it’s a day I will carry with me forever. I have a personal connection (many actually) to the city that never sleeps. New York has always held a truly special place in my heart, and the city was my playground throughout my teenage […]
I will explore the world one day & that is a promise. I crave adventure. I don’t need years of college and an overpriced calculator; I need a passport and a really beautiful luggage set. Oh, and $$$$$$$$ would be lovely too. 1. Santorini, Greece 2. Kiss my lover beneath the Northern Lights 3. Italy (every inch of it) 4. Hawaii 5. Israel (I’ll meet you in the Dead Sea) 6. Africa (bring home an […]
I could easily start off with a string of statistics; 44% of rape victims are under the age of 18, every 2 minutes an American is sexually assaulted, and my favorite, 97% of rapists will not spend a day in jail.
