"Por alguna extraña razón -o puede que sea intuición- queremos creer que la vida es algo más que nacer, crecer, alimentarse, disfrutar de un bienestar personal más o menos sofisticado y, luego, morir."

(from the other day)

Erica acts like a fucking 15 year-old girl. I swear she's bitter about everything, she whines 24/7, if things don't go her way she yells and ignores you for the rest of the day, if you says something that slightly upsets her even though its true she finds 50 harsh things and spots them all at you one after another (it got to the point where I just broke down and started crying right there), she's a bitch, she walks like 10 seconds ahead everywhere and leaves without saying a word and we spend 20 minutes looking for her, then when we find her she says "nobody cares where I am anyways" when nobody had done or said anything. This has happened several times. There is not a single fucking day she doesn't say anything about my hair. "It looks fucking disgusting, I want to throw up just looking at it" "you know you should try brushing it sometime, I'm embarrassed just to be seen with you" "why don't you straighten it like normal girls" "maybe you should start fixing your hair, maybe that way you would look pretty"

And my dad. My dad doesn't look happy to be with us ever.

this is one of the most accurate posts i've seen

one of the worst moments in life is probably when you’re in a room full of people and you look around and see them all talking and laughing and all of sudden you feel so sad and lonely that you can even feel a physical pain in your chest because you realize that they all belong to someone and they all have someone who belongs to them and you don’t, you’re just kind of there

the essay question is: "what makes you unique?"

nothing. nothing makes me unique. i'm made up of ideas pulled from here and there. i read books that others read and i watch movies that others watch. i don't possess some incredible talent or have a effortless beautiful face that makes me distinct. my life is vapid and nothing seems to change.

Mirror

I am silver and exact. I have no preconceptions.

Whatever I see I swallow immediately

Just as it is, unmisted by love or dislike.

I am not cruel, only truthful -

The eye of a little god, four-cornered.

Most of the time I meditate on the opposite wall.

It is pink, with speckles.
I have looked at it so long

I think it is a part of my heart.
But it flickers.

Faces and darkness separate us over and over.
Now I am a lake.
A woman bends over me,

Searching my reaches for what she really is.

Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon.

I see her back and reflect it faithfully.

She rewards me with tears and the agitation of hands.

I am important to her.
She comes and goes.

Each morning it is her face that replaces the darkness.

In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman

Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish.

tell me all the ways i can make myself right in your eyes
