Disquieting Thoughts

Words help me find my way home.

“trust her words, trust her lies
she’ll say ‘I love you’ and severe the ties
cut you away, cut you loose
leave you hanging on a noose”

—   R.N.

“And maybe you’ve cut the ties
and all this time,
I’ve been hanging on loose strings
All this time…
All this time…”

—   R.N.

“don’t.
don’t remember me this way.
i loved you
i loved you
i loved you.”

—   R.N.

“how do i
breathe
when
my chest
is coming apart?”

—   R.N.

look at all these wonderful people posting their artworks and poetry and proses and here come the scum of the earth stealing their works and taking credit for it

Fine Dining

The meal begins with an hors d’oeuvre
Of silent screams and unspoken words
And certainly for the main course
They’d serve something even worse:
Piled high on a golden plate
Are the things I love and things I hate;
Oh, and something delectable on the side:
red lies and unyielding pride
A bottle of their finest wine
Of hidden tears and wasted time
And what else could they have for dessert
But anger, envy, fear, and hurt
Depressing music they play as a compliment
to express false sympathy and mock sentiments

That’s quite enough, my demons are fed
They’ve retreated to the back of my head
Oh the impact this meal on me has
Made me feel
That this unpleasant meal
Is quite possibly my last

Anonymous asked: Hold onto hope. Life is hard, but nothing is permanent. Everything passes... Therefore the bad dies too. Stay strong. The world needs you.

“the bad dies too”. I haven’t come across such a powerful phrase in a long time. this was just what I needed right now. thank you.
