“i think the heart is similar to guitar strings. when the pain is too much to bear and you can’t breathe, it hurts, like the strings laid across your chest are about to snap. it’s just like when you keep strumming and picking at the strings at their very limit, and sometimes they snap. sometimes you feel like they can’t ever be replaced. but if there were someone to replace your strings for you, like this, i feel like your wounds may heal just a little.”
“At the end of the day, people will let you down, they will label you as something you are not, it is all to make them feel better, it is about them not you.”
“Sometimes we just have to cut off the dead branches in our life. Sometimes that’s the only way we can keep the tree alive. It’s hard and it hurts, but it’s what’s best.”
courting-insanity-blog: I’ve found myself in a sort of rut. Part of me wants to contain my anxiety and depression, wants to destroy it, abandon it. But then, part of me doesn’t want to. It’s so familiar it feels like a part of me. I’m afraid that if I try and get rid of it I won’t be myself anymore. I’ll be a watered down version of what I once was. My name will no longer fit. I don’t know if this is only me or not and I wasn’t sure where to turn. Thank you for your time.
“It’s hard for me to decide whether or not I miss you, whether or not I just miss the feelings you gave me. Your name will pop up one day, and I’ll notice. But I won’t smile; I won’t get excited. I think that’s what time’s done for me. It hasn’t let me forget you, it just let me forget all the feelings and memories that came with you.”
