“[…] she kept the madness of her heart intact.”— Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude [trans. Gregory Rabassa]
agora eu sou outra
não porque eu descobri alguma fórmula mágica não porque eu entendi algo sobre mim mesma não porque aprendi a me amar
eu sou outra porque eu fui embora daquela
-que esteve tão presa
-que esteve tão cética
-que esteve tão dedicada a ser fortese hoje penso em orixás se hoje não ligo de deixar chegar se hoje consigo deixar pra lá é porque algo além da minha pele envelheceu
e eu me tornei a mulher que por vezes te disse que eu poderia ter sido
era tanta energia gasta em querer ser sua
ainda bem que acabamosestou feliz por ser eu

“So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they’re busy doing things they think are important. This is because they’re chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning”— Mitch Albom, Tuesdays with Morrie (via amortizing)
You ever meet someone who is the human version of the sun and every time ur with them u just feel so warm
““All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.””— J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
