- Albert Camus, from a letter to María Casares written c. June 1944

There is a kind of peace that comes from no longer needing to be understood

[disguisedfeelings]

I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do.

“i did not wait for you—

i didn't know you were coming.

when you walked into my life

i didn't know it was you

because i didn't know there was a you

you were never a list

a goal, a dream or

an expectation—

you were a surprise

a gift, an adventure,

a beautiful new beginning

to a story i never thought l'd have.”

“don’t look at me like that like i can do better like this sadness is a well that I jumped into on purpose nothing is on purpose”

—Mary Lambert, from “Shame Is an Ocean I Swim Across”.

[lumierae]

Modern life has trained us to rush. Efficiency is our religion. We speed through meals, through conversations, through foreplay. We treat the wait as an inconvenience instead of an invitation. We go straight from zero to touch, skipping the hover, the breath, the moment where desire builds in the gap between wanting and having.

You’re not just my love song, you’re my whole album.
