"Perhaps it's just easier to smile and pretend everything is fine, rather than admit my heart's a little swollen from losing something that wasn't even mine."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"People should fall in love more. Fall in love with the way your coffee swirls as soon as you pour the milk in. Fall in love with the look your dog gives you when you wake up. Fall in love with the rare moment when your cat doesn't ignore you. Fall in love with the person who tells you to have a good day. Fall in love with the waiter who gives you extra chili fries. Fall in love with sweaters in winter and cold lemonade in summer. Fall in love with the moment your head hits the pillow. Fall in love with talking to someone until 4 a.m. Fall in love with the days you can hit the snooze button over and over again. Fall in love when a lover stares at you for five hours. Fall in love with the stars when they look at you. Fall in love with the sound of someone breathing. Fall in love with the bus if it's on time or the train if it comes early. Fall in love with everything possible."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts

Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts

"I understand why people take flight from bridges, I understand why a girl holds a blade to her wrist, I understand why a grown man cries counting all his lists. What I wish for the world to understand is that in these fragile moments, patience and love are needed most."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"When you take a lover who uncovers all your flaws, listens to the very essence of who you are and embraces you rather than judges you, hold on to this love for a lifetime, as you will never find a love quite as pure."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"I tried to stop loving you
so I built walls around my heart
and found other names
to whisper in the night.
But you carved yourself into my veins
whether you meant to or not.
And sometimes I wonder
if you remember the way we looked at each other
or maybe you just forgot."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"They say don't fall in love with writers because their poems are messy and their letters are empty words dressed up to look pretty. But I say fall in love with me because underneath the mess and in between the lines is a heart too full of love that would follow you to any city."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"Life is too short for games unless it's a game of cards.
Don't text back right away; if you like them, pretend you don't; and don't you dare say I love you first. Well screw all that.
I will text you back in three seconds; I will tell you that I like you; and if I love you, I'll tell you every chance I get.
Life is unpredictable, and I'd rather play every card as honestly as I can than have a deck full of regrets and what-ifs."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"I loved what we had too. The only difference was that I saw it as forever and you saw it as just for now."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"Sometimes sadness does not have a source. There is no immediate solution, no escape plan from its clutches. Instead, you learn to coincide, as though sadness is an old friend who needs a gentle nudge in the right direction."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"I have been a little off balance since the day I met you. This is because I had never known what it is like to be perfectly aligned."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"You won't remember, they say, when someone drifts away. One minute you are talking about life's greatest adventures and listening to mixtapes on Monday afternoons, and the next their presence is replaced with silence: a fragile nonexistence with nothing else to lose. But I will always remember our drift. It took up all this space, like a planet with many moons. It was the year you forgot my birthday."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"You were always miles away. Maybe you were just always meant to be miles away. The distance saw us together in a dream and thought we were better off without all the mess."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"I still feel the aches you left behind, even after all the time you have been gone. This heart of mine has been broken before, but this emptiness has never left me quite as sore."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"When the stars ask you what it is you want,
why do you speak of a love that tears you apart?
Why do you crave a love that will break your heart?
Your soul is never beyond repair, so stay humble and be kind
and eventually a love will come along
and remind you of why you are alive."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"You are a battlefield. Never will there be a greater war than the one you hold with yourself."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"There are days where triggers are around every corner, lurking in shadows where darkness spills heavy breaths and tight chests. Anxiety is a devastating thing. No matter how many times you are told to "breathe," it feels as though the air has all but thinned, and despite every logical reason to remain calm, you feel like a ship without its sails in the middle of a raging storm."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"We should kiss. Not because you passed my way by chance but because you stopped and I haven't been the same since."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"Then I am reminded that life will continue on, regardless of whether I choose to board the train or stay on the platform."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"It's exhausting to be locked in your head with all these thoughts that tie you down. Just for one moment, try with all your might to let go of all the things that stop you from being you."
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
"she's the type of girl
that has a place in her heart
for all the lonely people to go
with their forgotten footprints
in the snow"
Courtney Peppernell, Pillow Thoughts
