“saw you at a party shirtless drinking wine and i wanted you so bad i could taste it. i did the whole pretty woman thing where i wouldnt kiss you on the mouth at first but then one night i came over and kissed you so hard and i heard you moan my name through the cracks in your teeth. i dont think i will ever get over you.”

- Sara Sutterlin, from SHORT STORIES ABOUT EX BOYFRIENDS

If you could eliminate one of aspect of your personality which would you get rid of?

I’d eliminate my insecurity. It bleeds into absolutely everything that I do and makes me incredibly anxious. Or my anxiety which makes me insecure. It could be either!

I am so sorry, but sometimes I think the way you talk to people are so childish and why not slightly annoying (no offence)? You need to grow as a writer and TV presenter. You have to be more laid-back and spontaneous. Have a wondrous night! P.S. I do not w

No offence taken! I’m sure I do irritate some people. Unfortunately, the way I talk right now is simply how I do and since I’m quite happy with myself, I’m not going to attempt to change it unless it naturally occurs. As for the writing, yes, I’m constantly trying to grow on that front. Have a good evening!!! xxx

Darling, I feel insignificant.

Never. Come here. Listen. I think the world is breathing inside of you. Ask someone you love to put an ear to your chest. Tell them to tell you what they hear. I hope they say “everything.”

“Your downfall.

Your apple, your architect, your wonder, your wander.

Your hand that feeds, your mouth that swallows, your temptation, your tempt-in, your honey and almond, your honey and bitten lips, your bitter, your biter, your fists and your longing

Your five years down the line, your unsure and you’re unsure, and your milk, your mouth

Your alter, your ungodly church, your prayers,

your teeth, your snarl,

your eat and your eaten, your eat her out, your feast, your banquet, your unholy offering, and your sighs and her sighs,

your lion’s soft, your lion’s roar, your grumbles, your tender,

your thighs and your stretch marks,

your thighs and your cigarette burns,

your cage, your arms, your cage

your lick, your growl, your possession, your lover, your guilt, your ‘I won’t love you in the morning,’ your mistake, your love, your sweetness, your mine, you’re mine,

your leaver, your leave-her,

your temptation, your downfall

Your regret, your longing, your lover

your love-her”

“

So when people leave, I’ve learned the secret: let them. Because, most of the time, they have to.

Let them walk away and go places. Let them have adventures in the wild without you. Let them travel the world and explore life beyond a horizon that you exist in. And know, deep down, that heroes aren’t qualified by their capacity to stay but by their decision to return.

”

I’m running low on sleep and I tripped over a plastic bag at work today and said to it in a very stern tone “excuse me but what do you think you’re doing.”

Can I be in love with two amazing guys at the same time? What do I do?

Pick one, init.
