Love Confessions

A list of love confession prompts

"I can't believe it took me all these years to realize how I truly feel about you."

"Don't even pretend not to know how incredibly sexy and amazing you are."

"I don't think I've ever met someone that makes me want to treat them like royalty before."

"You could take over the world and I'd gladly let you lead... but I'd want to be your secondhand man."

"You are everything..."

"Oh god, I can't believe how much I adore you."

"Please never leave me like that I again! I thought I lost you and I couldn't bear the thought."

"I can't trust anyone that doesn't absolutely love you... like I do."

"No, you idiot. I love you."

"Trust me, you don't know what love is. I do. Because I've been in love with you since we were kids, holding hands while running around on the playground."

"You take my breath away."

"I'm so into you."

"I can't imagine my life without you in it."

"Please... never leave me again."

"I can't not love you. It's just not in me... crap, did I say that out loud?"

"I can't bear one more day of invisibility! I don't care if you hate me; I just want you to see me, all of the love and appreciation that I have for you - SEE ME!"

"I'm so scared that you'll never want to hold my hand again... and your hand is the only hand I want to hold."

"Your hand feels so natural in mine. It's like the gaps in mine were made for your hand."

"Life feels empty when I'm not around you."

"You are my world."

"How did I not see it before? I am... falling in love with you. God, what a fool I am."

"How did this happen? I was never meant to fall for you."

"I can't do this anymore. If I fall in love with you, I'm going to lose... no, you're right. It is too late."

Quotes from famous writers (on the process of creating)

1. "You don’t start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it’s good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it." - Octavia E. Butler

2. "Get it down. Take chances. It may be bad, but it's the only way you can do anything really good." - William Faulkner

3. "If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." - Toni Morrison

4. "I'm writing a first draft and reminding myself that I'm simply shoveling sand into a box so that later I can build castles." - Shannon Hale

5. "Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer." - Barbara Kingsolver

6. "It is perfectly okay to write garbage as long as you edit brilliantly." - C. J. Cherryh

12. "As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand." - Ernest Hemingway

13. ''One thing that helps is to give myself permission to write badly. I tell myself that I’m going to do my five or 10 pages no matter what, and that I can always tear them up the following morning if I want. I’ll have lost nothing—writing and tearing up five pages would leave me no further behind than if I took the day off.'' - Lawrence Block

14. ''Remember: Plot is no more than footprints left in the snow after your characters have run by on their way to incredible destinations.'' - Ray Bradbury

16. ''Read, read, read. Read everything – trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it’s good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out of the window.'' - William Faulkner

17. ''You reach deep down and bring up what feels absolutely authentic to you as you move along with the book, but you don’t know everything about it. You can’t.'' - Anne Rice

20. ''People say, ‘What advice do you have for people who want to be writers?’ I say, they don’t really need advice, they know they want to be writers, and they’re gonna do it. Those people who know that they really want to do this and are cut out for it, they know it.'' - R.L. Stine

21. ''Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer.'' - Barbara Kingsolver

22. ''No person who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.'' - CS Lewis

Listening to an Acapella, With my lipstick smeared, All over my tall glass of vanilla. My thoughts growing cruel, While I'm perched in the pool, Pervaded by my own tears, As I'm tucked in a blanket of my fears. This might be my time to halt, Although I'm still, Coating my wounds in salt. - D. Beulah

“Where there is a will, there is a way. If there is a chance in a million that you can do something, anything, to keep what you want from ending, do it. Pry the door open or, if need be, wedge your foot in that door and keep it open.”

Reasunción.

Empezaré con una nueva hoja. No borraré ni quemaré las anteriores, ya que, cada una, cuenta una historia única de lo que soy. Todas esas partes que he llevado dentro y que, de pronto, han salido a degustar un poco de la existencia que da el papel, han dejado, sin embargo, de ser mías, aun teniéndolas dentro de mí. Ya no palpitan. Han pasado a ser parte del mundo tangible que supone la palabra escrita. No obstante, habrá más partes que se deshojen en historias, en las cuales nacerán personajes que experimentarán, con singulares emociones, cada una de las vidas que les tocará vivir a través de mi pluma y, así como dejé ir a las otras, abriré mis manos para dejar volar a las que todavía no concibo. Para esto son las hojas blancas, para hacerlas carne ante los ojos de los que miran y del mismo que las esboza.

¿Cuántas partes he dejado ver y cuántas me han sido tan desconocidas, aun siendo tan mías?

Hojas y hojas de eternidades, dibujadas en un mar de palabras inolvidables; eso es este espacio.

Un paseo de vivencias reales e imaginarias, creadas a la luz de una oscuridad que me habla a través del silencio que grita en mis entrañas.

Reassumption.

I will start with a new piece. I won't erase or burn the previous ones, since each one tells a unique story of what I am. All those parts that I have carried inside and that, suddenly, have come out to taste a little of the existence that paper gives, have, however, ceased to be mine, even though I still have them inside me. They no longer palpitate. They have become part of the tangible world of the written word. However, there will be more parts that will be shed in stories, in which characters will be born who will experience, with singular emotions, each one of the lives they will live through my pen and, just as I let the others go, I will open my hands to let fly those I haven't yet conceived. This is what the white sheets are for, to make them flesh before the eyes of those who look and of the one who sketches them.

How many parts have I allowed to be seen and how many have been so unknown to me, even though they are so much mine?

Sheets and sheets of eternities, drawn in a sea of unforgettable words; that is this space.

A walk of real and imaginary experiences, created in the light of a darkness that speaks to me through the silence that screams in my guts.

“It always takes two. For relationships to work, for them to break apart, for them to be fixed.”

I truly hope he does know about it

“I didn’t know I could fall in love with you so easily so naturally like flowers that always know when to bloom or birds that always know what to sing”

Maturing is understanding that it's not possible to enjoy every minute of your life but nevertheless making efforts to relish even the smallest moments because you realise that there is so much more of life hidden in those nanoseconds.

- D. Beulah

Truly loving someone is to accept their faults, embrace their imperfections and to let them grow. To help them grow, to give them time to grow. To succour them, to appreciate them for trying. This, is the sweetest and the most beautiful manifestation of love.

- D. Beulah

“It’s really a wonder that I haven’t dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.”

— Anne Frank

Love isn't losing yourself because you found someone else.

You know you loved them when their name still leaves a sharp tang on your tongue every time you say it - D. Beulah

Isn't it lovely, how sometimes "Do I know you?" gradually transforms into "You're the best I've ever known." ?

Some things need to end, for better ones to begin.

Listening to him feels as if soft kisses are being planted on my ears. -D. Beulah

“This generation is so sensitive it can’t even take jokes…”

Our entire cohort scrolls through memes and laughs at them all day. We just don’t take ableist, racist, homophobic, sexist, transophobic, classist, and ageist jokes. Nor should you ever expect us to accept or stand them.

- D. Beulah

One of the most bittersweet emotions I feel is having someone in my mind, that I can't have in my arms.

- D. Beulah

We all feed on lies when our hearts are starving.
