“Is there no way out of the mind?” - Sylvia Plath
The entire human existence is trapped, first in your desolate mind, then an equally desolate body. Often the things we fear are products of our own imagination, and your own pride, your own hubris, your own creations are what lead to your demise (whether you fear it or not).
"I will be my undoing If I become my obsession.I will forget the ones I love if I do not serve them.I will war with others if I refuse to see them.
Therefore I choose to turn away from my reflection,To rely not on myselfBut on my brothers and sisters,To project always outward
Until I disappear." - Veronica Roth
Surprisingly, this is from YA, and it’s given me something to focus on in the midst of my existential crisis.
“Man, you may hate; but beware! Your hours will pass in dread and misery, and soon the bolt will fall which must ravish from you your happiness for ever. Are you to be happy, while I grovel in the intensity of my wretchedness? You can blast my other passions; but revenge remains -- revenge, henceforth dearer than light or food! I may die; but first you, my tyrant and tormentor, shall curse the sun that gazes on your misery. Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful. I will watch with the wiliness of a snake, that I may sting with its venom. Man, you shall repent of the injuries you inflict." - Mary ShelleyI don’t really know why I like this one, I’ve always been drawn to it.

Describe your favourite texture:
it’s the way your chapped, dry lips felt as i brushed them with my own in the purple-blue-orange light filtering through your dirty dashboard and the neon light blinked 1839 as i leaned across from the passenger seat, it’s the cracked leather under my palm as you hovered above me in the backseat an hour later as your long black hair tickled my face and i could see that tiny freckle winking at me from your shoulder, it’s the grimy wall against my bare shoulders as we’re pressed together in some alley holding our breaths hoping they won’t track us down hoping they won’t tear us apart, it’s the way the cotton of your rust tank top felt in my hands as your breath is hot in my ear whispering love’s a fragile little flame, baby, we could burn out, it’s the scratchy wool of my sweater as you held my hands through the holes that december as you told me i’m in love with you under the ferris wheel, it’s the cool stone floor of the pizza place you took me to under my feet
it’s the machine-washed-sun-dried piece of paper i discover is the receipt you stuffed into my back pocket three months before
and the salty hot tears burn exquisite agaisnt my face as i rush out of the store and pile into my car i miss you i miss you i miss you
