Dying is Safe

it's fine that we have bones
it doesn't mean that we're alone
like waves who live to crash
when we die we will be home

Heart of Chambers

Everyone likes your friend more than you, but you don't seem to mind. Side by side, all eyes on her. Her hair is blonder, eyes are bigger and smile is wider, but you both look happy. You're happy with your place in life. Or so I thought. You were explaining curse words to foreigners, and everyone was laughing, and as a final disclaimer so they knew you weren't normally this vulgar, you said, "I've never even had sex before." Between your closing lips and your friends' disbelief was the exact moment I saw your heart. I saw you in its deepest chamber. I'm sorry you're so alone. I'm sorry that we're alone.

I am so sad. I would give anything to feel whole again.

Slow progress, remaining hopeful, but still hurting and crying and aching to live once more. It hurts so much to feel this way.

What happens to my fist when I open my hand?

You weren't made for this place, but it's not your fault.

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.

 Carl Jung

I am crying reading success stories.

I love my brother more than anyone in the world. I only want to see him well.
