Quote Of The Week

  ‘Tell myself it’s time now gotta let go‘, Red, Red. Taylor Swift - 2012.  

Man, it’s been a while. But I knew it, I knew you
Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve
It’s Nice to Have a Friend
Trauma will shape you. Make it a masterpiece
Nobody’s heard from me for months, I’m doin’ better than I ever was
Cruel Summer
You never called it what it was
Dear Reader
Try and come for my job
Long story short, I survived
And the road not taken looks real good now
What happened, you? That’s what happened, you
I haven’t met the new me yet
it’s time to go
It’s all just a blur
There wouldn’t be this if there hadn’t been you
right where you left me
I want you to know I’m a mirrorball
The Life of a Sourdough Girl
Everything you lose is a step you take
Am I allowed to cry?
hell was the journey, but  it brought me heaven
