I just wanted to fall asleep and know you'd still be there in the morning.






















At some point we accept the dream has become a nightmare,
We tell ourselves that reality is better,
We convince ourselves it's better that we never dream at all.
But the strongest of us,
The most determined of us,
We hold on to the dream -or we find ourselves faced with a fresh dream we never considered.
We awake to find ourselves against all odds, feeling hopeful,
And if we're lucky, we realize -in the face of everything,
In the face of life-
That the true dream is being able to dream at all. ♥



















Time passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls but pass it does. Even for me.




















In front of me is a vista, empty but inexpressibly spacious.
Between these two -a landscape of stone and wide blue sky-
is where I am.



















Perfer et obdura, dolor hic tibi proderit olim.
-Be patient and tough, someday this pain will be useful to you.




















When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up rememberance of things past,
I sigh at lack of many a thing I sought
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
For precious friends hid in death's dateless night
And weep afresh love's long-since cancelled woe
And moan the expense of many a vanished sight.
Then can I grieve at grievances forgone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er
This sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I pay new as if not payed before.
But if the while I think on thee dear friend,
All losses are restored and sorrows end.

I’m Abi.
Just another girl trying to make sense of this world.
I put my heart and soul into everything I consider worthy. I set high goals and do whatever it takes to meet them. And I succeed a lot of the time.
But I’m nothing without my friends.
And God.
I live my life for Him. My faith is the most important part of me.
Questions? Just ask.
I love meeting new people.
I’ve learned that people react to me in one of three ways:
1. They are attracted to my effervescence. They find me cute and entertaining and are willing to chat every now and again but they don’t bother getting close. That’s the most common reaction.
2. They find me overly energetic and eccentric. They don’t understand me. And I don't usually understand them either.
3. They “click” with me. We’re on the exact same wavelength. And I will do anything for them. It doesn’t happen very often but it’s worth it when it does.

So how would you react?

Now that we’re done with the serious condensed introduction let me tell you some little things about me that’ll help you to piece together who I am:

-I have curly brown hair and eyes that vary between greyish green and vivid green.
-I live my life in the key of C major.
-It’s really easy to make me laugh.
-Daisies are my favourite flower.
-I’m told that if I was a food I’d be a cupcake.
-Abortion is wrong.
-I’m currently single but in love with my piano. Been playing since I was 4.
-Climbing trees is fun.
-I aim for perfection.
-I’ll automatically love you if you’re musical.
-I adore medical terms.
-I’m always wearing my bracelets from Italy that have jingle bells on them.
-I want to get married and have kids. Two boys and a girl.
-I’m obsessed with intelligence.
-Everything happens for a reason. ♥
-I want to go to Asia.
-I love it when it rains. But not when it drizzles. As it always does in Ireland.
-Needles scare me. Heights and spiders don’t.
-I love photography.
-I’m really sentimental. I get so attached to things that bring back memories.
-Skinny jeans + converse =
-Red is my favourite band. Listen to them! They’re amazing.
-I have nine and a half fingers.
-I love the word “aesthetic”.
-Elephants are the best animal.
-Superstition is idiotic.
-“That’s so cute!” is my overused phrase.
-I have a theory on hypocrisy. And also on the relationship between beauty and intelligence. I won't bore you with them here though.
-I have this thing for sword fighting.
-I collect "I love you"s in different languages. I also collect owl things.
-I can't decide if I love or hate Twilight.
-I love the smell of vanilla.
-I find birds really pretty and inspiring and symbolic.
-If something has polka dots on it there's a 99% chance I'll love it.
-I wrote this at 4 in the morning.

So that's me.
Thanks for visiting my dears, don't stop writing poetry!
Get in touch if you want.
-abi

"Just write. You are not allowed to think. Except for the motor nerves which allow you to move your arm which enables you to write that which you are not thinking of."

This is the kind of thing my closest friend Fiona says after we've spent the whole day loose in a large city wearing heart-shaped sun glasses and consuming large amounts of sugar. Friendship doesn't get much better than that.

Already over, your guardian angel, all good things, the fear, viva la vida, stop and stare, pieces, whispers in the dark, diary of jane, vois sur ton chemin, hide, bittersweet symphony, clocks, moonlight sonata, a thousand miles, what I’ve done, river flows in you, numb, stars, rule the world, lost, run, pictures of you, fearless, papercut, my immortal, everything, when you’re gone, shattered, easier to run, dare you to move, monster, patience, chasing cars, the man who can’t be moved, my happy ending, breakeven, love song, the kill, incomplete, from the inside, east to west, dark waltz, everytime, faint, in the end, keep holding on, lifesong, leave out all the rest, never alone, what I wouldn’t give, silver and cold, shooting star, everything, the reason, never be the same, gravity, for you only, flown, innocence, lithium, welcome to the black parade.

Meeting Abi was serendipity, I was trying to help out friend, but wanted to make sure she was okay too so I sent her a message and never looked back after that moment. We got closer and closer, shared secrets and found out we had more in common then we first thought. We've had doom and gloom, drama and break-ups in the short space of time we've known eachother, about a month I think, but we've also had amazing fun times, I will never forget. She has helped me through some of the hardest nights of my life and sometimes I think, she's the reason I am still here. She is so strong and beautiful and she justs need to see it. She is my little star and we will shine bright together. two halves of a broken thing, but we fit together. And no matter what happens I will always try to be here for this girl and try and help her so dont you ever even think about hurting her. not for one second. I'll do anything for her, swim to the bottom of the ocean for a pearl to go on a necklace or fly to the sun and get her some warmth. I so sincerly wish we lived closer, but sadly we don't, and this is the only way we can talk, but I hope it never ends, becuase I really don't know what I'd do without her.
I love you Abi

Okay, Hollie up theree said most of the things that i was going to saay! But im sure i can find some other things to say too With Abi, there are actually no words on this earth that can do her amazing looks, brilliant personality and just pure awesomeness any justice. But, i am going to try my best to let you know how fabulous this girl truely is. I met about,, maybe a month ago,, through a couple of friends. And since then, we havnt stopped talking, and laughing and sharing secrets and getting to know eachother. And each moment i have spent talking with Abi, has just been pure happiness and i dont regret a second of it. I shall forever be thankfull to Hollie for introducing Me and Abi. She is such an amazing person, with such a talent for capturing peoples heart. She is truely like a drug. Have a couple of conversations with her, and you are hooked, forever. Not that you would ever want to stop talking or getting to know this, beautiful and breath-taking angel. We have gone through some tough times together but also some really amazing times where we have just laughed and smiled at eachother.Somehow, no matter what mood i am in, Abi always manages to make me smile and laugh. Like Hollie said, i soo badly wish that Abi could live closer to us. I could just imagine the good times we would have together. I would never want to part from her. And i honestly dont know how i managed to get through 13 years of my life without Abi, but somehow i did, but now i know her, and love her like any member of my family, i dont ever want this to end. I actually dont know where i would be without this.. truely amazing gurl. And like Hollie said again, she is soo strong and beautiful, and some of the things she says, are just, gosh, stunning! There are no words in this world to truely describe Abi, so my advice to you. Get to know this amazing person! You will not regret it i promise you!
I love you Abi
