“Everyone who terrifies you is sixty-five percent water. And everyone you love is made of stardust, and I know sometimes you cannot even breathe deeply, and the night sky is no home, and you have cried yourself to sleep enough times that you are down to your last two percent, but nothing is infinite, not even loss. You are made of the sea and the stars, and one day you are going to find yourself again.”

“i pick up this bottle in the midst of everyone telling me that i’m a role model - i’m not asking you to coddle but i am feeling awful. this guilt is gnawing at my mind and i’m trying to make this something i can stomach by making it rhyme because this is something that i’m going to fail at for a lifetime. i don’t know how to talk about a relapse other than through a poem or photograph. i blog and try to inspire the masses - i’m passive when i write about my casket or me turning into ashes - i don’t know if i’ll ever beat this habit because due to my family history it’s a magnet. i didn’t ask for this pedestal - it got way out of hand and it became quicksand disguised as the promised land. there’s spilled drinks on the floor - i’m nothing that you should adore because when you look at me you should see a liquor store that is at fucking war behind a wooden door.”
