old habits DIE SCREAMING

“You realize, at last, that you can change without disappearing, that all you had to do was wait until the storm passes you over and you find that—yes—your name is still attached to a living thing.”

— Ocean Vuong, from On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous.

if you asked me if im still at the restaurant.

yes i am still at the restaurant. dust collected on my pinned up hair. i pretend i have moved on because i know everyone around me is sick of hearing my sufferings over and over again. but deep down, im still sitting in the corner i haunt. crossed legged in the dim light. the restaurant door has already closed after 6 years but there i am still right where you left me. I do believe in holding grudges, maybe i wont heal completely but thats fine by me. did u ever hear about the girl who got frozen? time went on for everyone else, she wont know it. shes still 13 inside her sufferings. i cause no harm, mind my business. who are you to judge if i am still in the corner i haunt. you left me no choice but to stay there forever.

oh to be a writer and live in europe

the ‘who uses typewriters anyway’ lyric is so funny to me because taylor swift is the exact kind of person you’d expect to have a typewriter
