I said to the sun, tell me about the big bang.
The sun said it hurts to become.

9What the hell is instant? Nothing is instant. Instant rice takes five minutes, instant pudding an hour. I doubt that an instant of blinding pain feels particularly instantaneous.
John Green, Looking for Alaska (via vanished)
I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.
Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.
Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day
I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.
I hunger for your sleek laugh,
your hands the color of a savage harvest,
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.
I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,
and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
hunting for you, for your hot heart,
like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.

There are two kinds of fears: rational and irrational — or in simpler terms, fears that make sense and fears that don’t.

“I am no bird, and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being, with an independent will; which I now exert to leave you.” -Jane Eyre
We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are.
