When I say she’s beautiful,

arpista:

We no longer squeeze into our older sisters’ clothing. We slide on our blue jeans and tug colorful t-shirts and sweaters on over our heads. In the morning, we have breakfast in the car, at the kitchen table, with a few friends. And our forks slip from our clumsy fingers, clattering to the ground….

Addiction is tricky. For example: a man who quit smoking for 11 years spent 15 seconds in an elevator with a man smoking a cigarette. He gave in.
What I’m trying to say is I think I love you again.

[…] and she used to say that love would haunt me whereas I was all about haunting myself since the very beginning. So my 5 year-old self laughed in my mind and told her I was more powerful than love. She clearly missed the entire point and I was so hysterically delighted. Love is an extra step only, Anne. An extra step. But not the madness scale itself. Not the dark ladder that will drag you into the unfathomable abyss of not tolerating your soul. Not to me.
