I feel so fucking empty, idk
I have this terribly strange habit of cutting myself open, for the pain and sorrow to crawl in and reside within my bones, of drowning myself in a sea of everlasting longing for something that is no longer there.

“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.”
— Leo Tolstoy
Everyone forgets that Icarus also flew. It’s the same when love comes to an end, or the marriage fails and people say they knew it was a mistake, that everybody said it would never work. That she was old enough to know better. But anything worth doing is worth doing badly. Like being there by that summer ocean on the other side of the island while love was fading out of her, the stars burning so extravagantly those nights that anyone could tell you they would never last. Every morning she was asleep in my bed like a visitation, the gentleness in her like antelope standing in the dawn mist. Each afternoon I watched her coming back through the hot stony field after swimming, the sea light behind her and the huge sky on the other side of that. Listened to her while we ate lunch. How can they say the marriage failed? Like the people who came back from Provence (when it was Provence) and said it was pretty but the food was greasy. I believe Icarus was not failing as he fell, but just coming to the end of his triumph.
-Jack Gilbert, “Failing and Flying” from Refusing Heaven
Today is another day in which it feels like I can’t do anything right. Another day that makes me hate myself more. Another day that makes me wish I didn’t exist anymore.
“coming of age” books and movies are so stupid like being a teenager isn’t about having sex and going to parties it’s about staring out your car window after hanging out with your old best friends who you haven’t seen in months and realizing that you aren’t actually friends anymore and that your childhood has been well and truly dead since you were thirteen
who wants to come over and just like. come to my backyard with me and then just. scream. for three hours.
me: *goes to nasa* hello i would like to volunteer to be thrown into the sun nasa: u would die me: i beg u
Don’t forget that you are human. It’s okay to have a meltdown, just don’t unpack and live there. Cry it out and then refocus on where you’re headed.
Cest.
Despite being friends for more than 3 years, you're still a mystery to me. But I guess it's better than to not know you at all.
I wish I could say this in person (I unfortunately don't have the courage to do so), but I want you to remember that I will always be here. I will always be your home on the days you feel lost, or be your blanket during cold nights.
Love you forever, bud. You're one of my greatest adventures.

I never knew what I wanted to do. I studied law, human resources, I had a job at a bank, it was shitty. And one day in the street, I was scouted as a model. That allowed me to make some money, and one morning, two and a half years ago, I woke up and I told myself: “Oh yeah, I’d like to be an actor.” I enrolled at a school, and I started the next day. And that’s all I’ve been doing since.

Everyone has that one person they can’t quite get over. You can move forward with your life, you can find happiness elsewhere but every once in a while your mind will always linger back to this person. It just feels… unfinished… like there are things left unsaid. But the funny thing is, even if you find this person and say all the things you want to… even if you do this time and time again, you will never get rid of that feeling. You will always feel unsettled and uneasy about the way it ended because the truth is it’s not about anything left unsaid or undone… What’s unresolved has nothing to do with words or actions – it’s your feelings. And it doesn’t matter how many times you go back to this person, weather you confront them or write them a letter or call them on the phone to say the things you feel you need to say to get closure… none of it will make a difference because deep down inside, for better or for worse… this person will always have a piece of your heart. Nothing you say or do will ever change that and it’s pointless to try so you may as well accept it. No matter what you do… it will never be over between you…
