Andrea Gibson Quotes

I know this world is far from perfect.I am not the type to mistake a streetlight for the moon.I know our wounds are deep as the Atlantic.But every ocean has a shorelineand every shoreline has a tidethat is constantly returningto wake the songbirds in our hands,to wake the music in our bones,to place one fearless kiss on the mouth of that new born riverthat has to run through the center of our heartsto find its way home.

That night when you kissed me, I left a poem in your mouth, and you can hear some of the lines every time you breathe out.

I wrote too many poems in a language I did not yet know how to speak.

Safety isn't always safe. You can find one on every gun.
