1. Solitude Words so often fall short, pale and twist and fail. We crave them, need them, can’t live without them, and yet it’s often only with silence that we can say what we mean. Say what needs to be said. In the flicker of candlelight, the dip of a mattress, the gentle tug of hands through you hair-sometimes, these are the only things that can be said, that need to be said. In solitude and silence the ghost of a breath is all the company you need because the words could never say as much.

About

To those who found their way to my tumblr, hello and welcome. My name is Melissa. I'm a 22 year old college graduate working crappy jobs day and night living life and taking joy where it finds me. I'm a storyteller at my most fundamental of levels and tell them in the ways in which they should be told-sometimes in words, sometimes in drawings or painitngs, sometimes in silence. Shared here is a lot of my own personal work, along with anything that inspires the storyteller in me, things that simply take my breath away in both laughter and beauty. Enjoy the journey. Every story is heard.
