&lt;p&gt;Make love to me&lt;br/&gt;

Go slow.&lt;br/&gt;
I’m new to this&lt;br/&gt;
but I have seen nearly every city from a rooftop without jumping.&lt;br/&gt;
I have realized&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;that the moon did not have to be full for us to love it.&lt;br/&gt;
We are not tragedies&lt;br/&gt;
stranded here beneath it. &lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We Were Emergencies&lt;/em&gt;- Buddy Wakefield (via &lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://suiicune.tumblr.com/"&gt;suiicune&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rule #1 of Tumblr:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you must reblog our creator whenever he comes up on your dash&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;david karp looks through the notes of this post, puts all the urls he sees onto the safe list, then deletes the rest of the blogs. reblogging this post is like when the jews put the lamb’s blood on their doorposts so the angel of death wouldn’t kill their firstborns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Must reblog for that comment&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;That comment, my God.. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Am I the only that notices that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is there as well?&lt;/p&gt;

What most people think I have: I'm shy and can't talk to people. I'm awwwwkwaaaard. &lt;br /&gt;&#13;
What I actually mean: I have full blown panic attacks which include heart palpitations, breathing problems, shaking, sweating and constant fear that I'm going to die when faced with situations I find uncomfortable.</description><link>http://persephonesart.tumblr.com/post/42631134537</link><guid>http://persephonesart.tumblr.com/post/42631134537</guid><pubDate>Fri, 08 Feb 2013 21:32:17 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>peacesmileslovenlight:

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We are artists. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; While others are content with an 8-color rainbow, we need hundreds, albeit thousands of colors to complete ours. We do not think in black and white; or even grey, for that matter (is it battleship grey, blue-grey or slate or&amp;#8230;). We are observers, often noticing things that others don&amp;#8217;t. We pay attention to detail. We lag behind on walks, finding &amp;#8216;treasures&amp;#8217; most people consider &amp;#8216;trash&amp;#8217;.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; We are the children with incessant questions. We ask &amp;#8220;why&amp;#8221;, not because we wish to annoy you, but because we are thinkers. We contemplate things that most people consider to be irritating, contrary, and/or not worth their time. We take time to see the potential of something, rather than seeing it for what it is. As a result, we are often taken advantage of for making the mistake of applying this thought to society as a whole.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; We are misunderstood. We are often mistaken for being &amp;#8216;rebels&amp;#8217;, &amp;#8216;troublemakers&amp;#8217;, &amp;#8216;class clowns&amp;#8217; and &amp;#8216;dissidents&amp;#8217;. However, the reality is that all we are really searching for is to preserve our individuality in a society that is so homogenized that most of its members would think that the word &amp;#8216;homogenized&amp;#8217; has something to do with milk. Nor would they even bother to take the time to seek out the true meaning. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; We are a dying breed. We are unique, not &amp;#8216;maladjusted freaks&amp;#8217;, &amp;#8216;weirdos&amp;#8217;, nor idiots. We are your children. We are your mothers, your fathers, your grandparents, your aunts and uncles, your nieces and nephews, your grandchildren. We are your friends, your neighbors, the people you walk by everyday but never seem to notice. We are your link to the past. W,e chronicle your present. We are your future.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; We are artists.&lt;/p&gt;
