“Loving you
felt like leaving a book out in the wind
the pages turned too fast for me to read
I dient get enough time
to adore you
to explore you
to trace your lines with my fingertips
and reread my favorite parts
to live the story I knew we we meant to be
before I knew it
the book was closed
the story was over
- unfinished”
― Whitney Hanson, Home

“i know that right now you want to run to them
but closed arms will not hold you
and careless hearts will not heal you”
― Whitney Hanson, Home

“If it failed I had no choice but to hang myself, a resolve which was tantamount to a bet on the existence of God.”
― Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

“dear empathy,
please stop telling me
that it’s okay when they hurt me
stop allowing me to accept
the knife you see in their side
is a reasonable excuse
for them to put two in mine
please stop introducing me to their demons
i don’t want to shake hands
with the reasons
they can’t seem to stay
please stop waving a white flag
and making me pity their anger
and make peace with their madness”
― Whitney Hanson, Home
