“I am in awe of flowers. Not because of their colors, but because even though they have dirt in their roots, they still grow. They still bloom.”

“There are no lungs like the ones that breathe poetry.”

“Love is wind for the soul”

“Life is so beautiful and so short that anything that makes me feel less than too much is nothing at all.”

“My heart's scripture tastes foreign in the mouths of cowards and on the tongues of those who have never breathed in the moon and breathed out the world.”

“Take each day in your open palms and close your fists around it. This life is not done with you yet.”

“Before you step out into the world today, remember that you will encounter people whose struggles you do not know. Remember the way a pair of eyes light up when greeted with kindness.”
