“Limbo

When you wait for a man to make up his mind about you, your life cannot move forward. You can't put your whole heart in anything else if you're betting on something that may not come through. You can build the life of your dreams without him. You can start today. But first, you need to take your heart off the table. You have a few precious years to do what you need to do. Don't waste them on him.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“A Life Unlived

We reminisce so much about the past that it becomes like a second shadow. We dream so much about the future that we are hardly present.

We talk so much about our lives, we forget to live it.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Yes, we took it all for granted—but isn't that such a blessed thing? When you're not even thinking about what you have, because you never imagine you someday won't.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Understand that we must lose our way, over and over, before we can find the best version of ourselves.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“I used to think love had no limits—
but I draw the line at myself.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“More love is found in grief
than in love itself”
Lang Leav, September Love
“I don't want to be in a relationship where I feel the constant need to explain myself. I don't want to live in a world like that either.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“December

It is only the year that is ending. So why does it feel like the world is?”
Lang Leav, September Love
“All the Things

You are made of the all things you have loved. You are made of the all things you have lost. And both contribute in equal measure to your beauty and your brillance.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“When my heart grows
too heavy to hold—I write
from the depth of my sorrow
to dizzying heights”
Lang Leav, September Love
“The moment you look at me will be the end of my life. The second your arms open for me, everything will fall to dust.

There is no such thing as happiness like this. My lips pressed into your palm. Joy tearing through me like madness. Your tongue drawing circles down my stomach. Nothing this perfect can come from God. It must be borrowed from a place so dark, it would make your skin crawl. It doesn't come without wanting something back.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Always Will

Here we are, fantasizing about normality. Our world has turned on its axis and we have all been thrown into the air, not knowing where we'll land. Wondering if there will still be a place for us among the ruins. Yes, we took it all for granted- but isn't that such a blessed thing? When you're not even thinking about what you have, because you never imagine someday you won't.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Self-growth is a long and winding road, and the ground we are treading is unlike any other. Please be patient with us. Be kind. Understand that we must lose our way, over and over, before we can find the best version of ourselves.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Only So Much

There is only so much you can say about a man who hurts you so covertly, so gradually. The tiny paper cuts that come one after another, so measured and subdued. It barely hurts, until it does. Yet your pain is visible to no one, sometimes, not even to yourself. There is no blood to mop up, no broken glass to sweep. Not a trace of anything untoward until it gets too much, and suddenly you are a wild animal thrashing, baring your teeth, and when they ask you why, you have nothing to show, no answer to give.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Who You Are

He has you, words tangled, wings clipped, folded at your breast. Trapped within yourself thinking, how did I get here? With all your promise and intellect, how did I get here? Whittled down like this, reduced to something you wore you'd never be. Now, how do you tear yourself away from him without ripping your life to shreds? You no longer recognize yourself, but sweet girl, that means you still know who you are. And while there is still a glimmer of hope behind those sad, tired eyes, know he hasn't worn you down. And while there is an ounce of fight left in you, know he wasn't won just yet. And while there is a chance in hell you get out of this, you come out swinging.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“I can't deny this is all my fault. I have no one else to blame for my life falling to pieces. But let me ask you this: is pain any less valid when it is self-inflicted?

Doesn't it hurt just as much?”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Legacy

You must believe it is your destiny to create beauty in this world. To shape your life with love and purpose, touch it ever so briefly with your weary hands and leave it a little more cherished than it was.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“The secret is
no one gets what they want
without losing who they are”
Lang Leav, September Love
“A girl who looks up at the stars knowing one day, she will be among them.”

“Let It
I have a rule about not thinking where I am or what comes next. I guess when you let go of the need to know, everything tends to fall into place. It is okay to dream, to allow your higher self to take care of the rest.So, if something is calling you, answer. If it bursts out of your chest like a trapped bird set free, follow it. There is a mysterious pull that longs to take you exactly where you need to go. Let it.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Don't you miss me—
not even a little?
Does this not feel like
a kind of slow death
Tell me know before I go on waiting
if I should die waiting for you”
Lang Leav, September Love
“Like love, loneliness is a nocturnal thing
when I'm missing you all night
You snatch away the sleep
You take so much time from me, my love”
Lang Leav, September Love
“The Chase

I have grown soft—forgotten what it was like to go hungry. Love has spoilt me, but I don't miss a man I have to chase. Does that seem sad to you? That I don't miss you? I wish I could tell you about my life. Paint a picture of everything you're missing. Sometimes I still feel you, looking out from behind my eyes. There was a time when I would have given it all to you. But not anymore. The truth is, I loved our love more than I loved you.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“doesn't your soul remain the age you were when you first fell in love?”
Lang Leav, September Love
“There is so much anxiety in the beginning. So much hope and faith. But it's all unnecessary. Once you give your heart away, it's out of your hands. And there's nothing you can do to change the fact that love is, or it isn't. It will either work or it won't.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“I live my life between being loved
or being known
wishing the two were one

To be loved is a wave rushing past
the shoreline; filling every void
To be known is an ache
that never goes away

Now that you love me, are afraid
to know me? Will distance tell you
what your heart refuses to see?

You're too close to me, my love
You're missing everything”
Lang Leav, September Love
“And that’s the whole point of poetry, isn’t it? To see
yourself in someone else. To feel less alone.”
lang leav, September Love
“I can’t deny this is all my fault. I have no one else to blame for my life falling to pieces.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“We reminisce so much about the past that it becomes like a second shadow.
We dream so much about the future that we are hardly present.
We talk so much about our lives, we forget to live it.”
Lang Leav, September Love
“All love is fleeting even when it lasts a lifetime”
Lang Leav, September Love
