“You don’t realize it, perhaps, but you are turning these delusions and illusions of the past into criminal things.”

It’s easy to love someone when they’re happy. What’s hard is loving someone when they’re crying on the bathroom floor at 2am because everything came crashing down at once.

Hello loneliness, how are you tonight? Are you shivering in the bathroom, crying as the walls seem to crush you in? Hello loneliness, are you doing alright? I’ve heard from my friend sadness that you got together. Hello loneliness, tell me do you want to be my friend tonight? I’m dying right now, and nothing seems alright. Loneliness, you come to see me when I am blue, When death hangs heavy in the air, till it feels like I am suffocating You come to see me when I am at my worst, When I want no one to see me, for I am like a demon awaiting it’s prey, I can tell you see me in a horrible light, so tell me loneliness can you visit me tonight? Hello loneliness, are you crying by yourself? Are the walls you’ve built around yourself suffocating you? You and I have barriers as high as castle walls, We let no one in, Because if we did, They would tear apart the small threads that hold our heart together, So tell me loneliness, do you want to be my friend tonight?

There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.

What a joy it is. To exist at all, I mean. What a lovely thought.

And beyond this, I sometimes think, you betray my voice, but speaking without you is a plea to a mirror, fleeing into the worst kind of wood.

One of my favorite parts of Skyrim is the little kid at the orphanage after you kill Grelod. She goes “Kill one person and you can solve so many problems. I wonder at the possibilities.”
