I thought I had been surviving, and yet, what I was really doing was hanging by a string, loosely holding myself from collapsing. I was always on the verge, and I could feel that friction in my soul.
Fariha Róisín, from Who Is Wellness For?: An Examination of Wellness Culture and Who It Leaves Behind
“For the kind of people who never connect, it can be devastating to feel attached to someone. You have no idea how it happened or why. You wake up one day and realize they are an extension of you. And all you feel is fear, ‘cause you don’t want to let them down or worst, smother with your care.”
i seek for the love that was deprived of me yet even now, i still seek of it. maybe it is not something that i should have yet my heart breaks knowing i could’ve had it.
“If you’re going to leave me, let it be in one single strike. Fast and devastating, but never as painful as your usual gentleness. Because this is capable of confusing my senses, and nothing can be crueler than believing that under other circumstances you would stay.”
