Finally….
Officially back on track as of today. Doc says all clear. Ends an 8-month period of extreme patience and a real head trip… Back to it… See you soon.
THE LOW SUNS- Never Gonna Care

Listen and love. I did :) <3 snowpatrol
We can always tell when things are better left unsaid but we can’t
Lose faith now, we’re fated. I want it but I’m haunted
By the thought of losing everything that we’ve been through this far and
Please help me, believe in all these things that I’ve been screaming
Talk is not enough, god knows I love to talk too much
‘We dream and dream of being seen as we really are and then someone looks at us and sees us truly and we fail to measure up’
