Nothing is more scary then moving forward into the dark, but nothing hurts more than being rooted to the place you least want to be

“The state came to massacre, it wasn’t a [police] operation. They came directly to kill, to take lives,” one woman in Penha Complex told the AFP news agency.

“There are people who have been executed, many of them shot in the back of the head, shot in the back. This cannot be considered public safety,” said 36-year-old resident and activist Raul Santiago.

Brazil’s Justice Minister Ricardo Lewandowski said President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is “horrified” by the scale of fatalities and surprised that such an operation went ahead without prior knowledge of the federal government.

Adding my own previous tags:

I’d sincerely appreciate it if non-Brazilians reblogged this. Media outlets all over the world (and especially in my homeland) will try to sweep this under the rug but the horror has spread nationwide. We call it chacina for a reason.

It would be of great help if other countries and their citizens held Brazilian politicians/figures of authority accountable. Or, at least, acknowledge very publicly that there's an ongoing effort by the Brazilian police force to exterminate black and brown people, especially in Rio.

You ever feel a bit mad at someone only to see them and realize you just miss them?

-I’m angry that life has made it more difficult to see you and mostly I’m mad at myself for not trying harder…

I want to see you and feel that I’m not falling for you all over again, that I’m not attached…

The flutter in my heart says I have a long way to go

[ulucies]

It’s like I’m stuck in molasses

I wish it were easier to cut through all of this so I can see everyone more. So much of my energy simply spent fighting not to drown as it continues to consume me.

When I’m with you, you take my hand and I can run away from the sludge that doesn’t want to let go. And although I can never shake the sticky strands off completely, I can almost forget it’s there for a while, I can almost forget what it’s like to live with this weight. But it always finds its way back to me, like a death snail, it never stops its lethargic pace to consume me. Sometimes it doesn’t wait for you to be gone and the loneliness begins to suffocate me even in your company. And I hate to fill our time together with trying to fix the mess I am. When the sludge seems to be seeping from my pores, when it’s so obvious I’m the reason I continue to find myself here.

I think I’m becoming a fossil, a bug trapped in amber. I feel like I can’t move forward, I’m becoming petrified as my prison hardens. I feel like I’m losing the fight in me and I surrender to the stillness. There is a peace here that I have missed within myself for a long time. But like anything that stands still in life, it will eventually be left behind. I find a sense of comfort knowing you won’t always have to drag me along, it’s okay, I want to tell you. Carry the happiness I have found because of you, within you and keep going. You aren’t supposed to look back, you need to keep going.

Hey Friend, I haven’t been doing too good…

-I’m worried that you’ll get tired of how I can only ever share how heavy everything seems to be. But the week has not been good or I think it’s just me, either way, I don’t want to bother you with the same story of how the loneliness is overwhelming me, so I’ll shout it out into the abyss. I want to fall into someone’s embrace and disappear for a while. I feel like I just need to get away from myself for a while, I miss you…

Where is the line between being a defeatist and being realistic?

I am deeply romantic and don’t know whether it’s more healthy to adjust my expectations or to not settle for anything but a Love that will awaken me to life

-It’s a love I still don’t recognize within myself

My pleas for help are heard too late…

I am stuck in the past you see, afraid of moving forward, life has all but left me behind

There are so many feelings inside and no where to set them free…

A burden I didn’t want to place on someone who couldn’t see me like I see him. So the weight I carry grows and my knees buckle at the pressure, my fear of being seen keeps my hands from reaching out…
