'Only those who truly love you can see you cry behind your smile'

A heart empty of dreams is just a bird without wings

With every pair of eyes that you look into, there comes a story.

Light and dark are phases that are here to test us what matters is... how we cope with the dark and how we hold onto the light.

If you think it's bad when you're sitting in the gutter always remember the drain is worse

Love me as much as you want every single day so that when I'm gone you know you always loved me enough.

I believe I could never convince a non-believer into believing.

When my enemies visit me in my dreams I take it as a great compliment that they are missing me.

And so, after finally realizing I was far too good for his bad love I said goodbye with dignity and I just got on with my life.

Choose your path wisely and then believe in it.

Always remember every shade of blue can be brightened.

Passing through the unknown will take you into infinity.

In every heart, there is a fire waiting to burn bright.

To be a person of strength is to know that the colours of life can't always be bright.

Unlike death a good cup of coffee can bring you back to life.

Somewhere deep down in the bottom of my soul, there is a violin playing erratically.

Believe in yourself, there is no greater power than that.

Those who can see your soul, can see you.

Inspired by inspiration, inspiring me always.

It may feel sometimes as if the sky is falling on you but for some, it has already fallen.

The day I decided it didn't matter what others thought about me, is the very same day I found myself.

No matter how stubborn you may be, never ever refuse a hug.

When I moved to a foreign country I just couldn't shake the Bridget Jones out of me so she stayed, and I'm so glad she did.

Don't ever be fooled by a ladybird sometimes... they are stronger than a rhinoceros.

I'm doing a job I'm far too over qualified to do, and I love it.

opening your imagination will lead you to possibility, possibility you have yet to imagine.

Way down deep in the very bottom of my heart there is a violin playing erratically.

Keeping your dignity is ones first priority and a must when it comes to matters of the heart.

Touching your most terrifying moments with a graceful nod Then leaving them in the past Shows what a strong soul you truly are.

Grief will come in many forms but the form in which you choose to see it, will be the one that stays forever.

Remember, everything that goes on today, is just tomorrow's chip wrapping.

Be kind, don't think about it, Just do it

A true Poet's reflections are waiting to be reborn, every time she writes.

A Warm Heart will always glow like a lighthouse

the measure of time doesn't exist when I am with you.

When someone calls me crazy, I take it as the greatest compliment and I say thank you

When life overwhelms you and you truly believe that you are worth nothing... just know you are worth everything.

We can learn anything we want but there will never ever be enough time to learn it all.

when your soul cries listen to it the tears will either drown you or keep you hydrated from drought.

if the moon can rise from the ashes of the sun the sun can also rise from the ashes of grief.

Have you ever met anyone who you immediately thought is from a different planet? I have... It's such bloody fun.

I've always found a person's heart to be more interesting to meet rather than their shell of beauty.

One, can never force love because it only leads to another heart, faking it.

We should all believe in ourselves, there is no greater religion than that.

if we are not partners with those who spark our lanterns then they are worthless.

I went to see my reflection in the water and I was blinded by the sun

The desire to really know ones own soul, will end all desires once, one finds out.

Don't be afraid to open your eyes to take a peek, there is a poem... in absolutely everything you see

I have found that sometimes Evil can be completely overwhelmed by the reflection of pure love

Put your fear in the rubbish bin where it belongs, it will instantly be recycled into courage.
