Quote by butterflies rising

“what makes you feel… what makes you. feel. alive. how is your breath stolen. how. and when. does this life give you arrhythmia. what pulls at you so much that it hurts not to chase it. the dreams out there, the hopes in here. the art, the words, the songs… what shifts you. that somewhere beautiful in this world that calls to you in the early light. those aching things that keep you up so restless after midnight. what takes you higher than this world, what takes you deeper into your soul light… all of those things… i want to know. those. things… show me all of your soul things”

“it's so delicate here. but it's where i'm the most brutal. it's where my raging gets careless, and the delicate things end up crushed. i fight my hardest fights trying to love the deepest love, but i've never been more unkind than i've been in these close quarters …in this head, and to this heart. and when others have been unkind, how quick i've been to betray myself and just agree. and i've let it all hurt so much that unworthy has felt like the only feeling i may ever again know… like a flower whose every last petal has been torn away and thrown to the wind with nothing left to recognize as beautiful. just wilted. and bare with pain. but what if it hurts this way for a reason… because that ache in me is the fight in me to learn to feel different. because somewhere deep inside i know that i want to be delicate here… desperately. and when they're unkind, and when i'm unkind, somewhere deep down, i know that i fiercely. disagree. and there's a wild blossom in me and it's too beautiful to ever just be torn away and thrown to the wind. and there's a tenderness that i'm made of and an intimacy that i'm part of… one that i'm going to learn to take such delicate care of.”

“it’s one of the darkest feelings i’ve ever known… unworthy. and maybe i want to learn to start questioning it when i feel it. like… is it always even mine? because if it's from someone else… someone else's unkindness, or judgment, or their own unworthiness they’re projecting… then i want to learn to say no. i think maybe my own battles would get a little easier to face if i wasn't also fighting the ones that aren't even mine.”

“aching to touch stars… i hope you keep it close… no matter what. if it's imprinted on you, like soul memory, then i hope you keep it so. close. and that you hold on tight no matter what. there will be little traces of someday in the not-quite-yet, and i hope you feel them. and that you can find a way to trust them. even if weary sets in and uncertain gets loud, i hope you can be gentle with that doubt. and that something in you knows that it will pass. and that it doesn't mean give up. i hope you never truly feel give-up. but if you do, then i hope that some. how. that the fight in you finds its teeth and that heart of yours finds its fire and that you can reach deep down into that part of you that is aching to touch stars and just find a way to stay dreaming no. matter. what. i hope you can hold on and hold on and hold on… until you can feel every last bit of your hope holding you right back.”

“she's a wildflower on fire with all that sweet soul sugar and an ache inside to unfold and to grow into so much more, all that destiny written in her eyes, she’s wild butterflies, and she feels her heart pulled under the wild of the moon to face her fears and to find her way through all of the dark and the heavy that she's carried for so long… there's fight here, but there's surrender here too. and there could be so much freedom here if she could just let herself fall into that beautiful chaos and dig deep into that passion in her bones… she could uncover all the beautiful things that those wildfires inside of her hold.”
