Happiness is a choice. Even though it might be terrifying to know that you can't blame others for your loneliness, you have to take the risk. We are not terrified of our shadows, but our capacity to shine beyond imaginable.

You mistake her name for the moon
Mistake porch lights for the stars
And sometimes they are
her constellations lead me home
ten thousand shades of open
and if there’s one thing in this world
I’ve ever known for sure it’s that this girl
is gonna crush me like a small bug,
leave me so fucking broken there’ll
be body bags beneath my eyes
from nights i cried so hard the stars died
but I’m like, go ahead, I’m all yours
I would kiss you in the middle of the ocean
during a lightning storm
‘cause I’d rather be left for dead than left
to wonder what thunder sounds like.
