❝
There are certain emotions in your body that not even your best friend can sympathize with, but you will find the right film or the right book, and it will understand you.
— Björk (via ihatenietzsche)

Sometimes letting things go is an act of far greater power than defending or hanging on.
— Eckhart Tolle (A New Earth)
the weight of your absence is heavier than the weight of your presence.
My lungs are heavy
from all the times I’ve swallowed
down your name.
(every time I breathe
I taste your vowels.)
When he kisses me
I wonder if he can taste
the ashes on my tongue
from all the times
I burned myself
trying to choke down
my own desperation.
