Home is where somebody notices when you are no longer there.

“I need to be alone. I need to ponder my shame and my despair in seclusion; I need the sunshine and the paving stones of the streets without companions, without conversation, face to face with myself, with only the music of my heart for company.” - Henry Miller, Tropic of Cancer

I’ve learned that millions of people can believe in you, and yet none of it matters if you don’t believe in yourself.

“you have moments where you think that your life couldn’t be better, and then you have moment where you cry on the bathroom floor wondering why life is so hard”

As you get older, you learn that you don’t have to die to be dead. You realize that growing up actually sucks, and all the things that you were once so eager for are the things that broke you down. Everyone wants to experience love, alcohol, getting a job, and starting a family. But everyone expirences heartbreak and failure, and it just numbs them a little more every time until we stop taking risks. That’s growing up- Playing it safe and doing what’s best for you, even if it’s not who you are.

i think the reason why i get upset so quickly is because i would never do the things people do to hurt me, to hurt them

do you ever start missing someone but then you think of everything they've done to you and you’re like nah nvm

I am nothing more than an abandoned house with holes in the roof. They choose to leave when I can no longer shelter them. I wish to leave with them, as I too, cannot shelter myself.

You don’t have to be at the sea to drown You don’t have to be near water at all Mere thoughts are sometimes enough To drown you, to smother you
