god is a woman

"So, if you are too tired to speak, sit next to me for I, too, am fluent in silence."

“Here is the truth: It is hard to be in love with someone who is in love with someone else. I don’t know how to turn that into poetry.”

“Maybe this world is another planet’s hell.”

“Be messy and complicated and afraid and show up anyways.”

“If you miss them, that means you’re lucky. It means you had someone special in your life, someone worth missing.”

“My only relief is to sleep. When I’m sleeping, I’m not sad, I’m not angry, I’m not lonely, I’m nothing.”

“That’s what I do: I make coffee and occasionally succumb to suicidal nihilism. But you shouldn’t worry — poetry is still first. Cigarettes and alcohol follow”

“I feel like everyone fakes who they really are, when deep down we’re all equal amounts of screwed up. Some of us are just better at hiding it than others.”
