“I'll never amount to anything—well anything my parents want,
so instead I’ll end up puking and drinking till I’m blind drunk,
It’s funny my mother says I hurt myself to spite her
but she doesn’t know I hurt myself because I am, I am, I am a writer.”
P.A. Bitez, Soft Tortures

“Existing is exhausting.
I want to live
- How to be”
P.A. Bitez, Soft Tortures

“And it hit me like a ton of bricks -
that people will put you on a pedestal
to only later pull it from under you.
Stability.”
P.A. Bitez
