Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.

I wanna be alone,

Alone with you - does that make sense?

I wanna steal your soul,

And hide you in my treasure chest.

I don't know what to do,

To do with your kiss on my neck.

I don't know what feels true,

But this feels right so stay a sec.

- “Hostage” by Billie Eilish

I've been acting out, wasting all your time,

You've been crashing at the hands of the devil.

I've lost all the feeling in my toes,

I've been making deals with the devil.

If I could hold onto

The hope that you still

Want me, two weeks top,

Then maybe, oh, I'll fuck it up.

If I could hold onto,

The hope that you still

Want me, two weeks top,

Then maybe, oh, I'd fuck it up.

I've been saving face, changing all my clothes,

Your hands reached deep,

I start to fall.

I just can't stop wasting all your time,

Our hands form lines, as we grow old.

If I could hold onto,

The hope that you still

Want me, two weeks top,

Then maybe, oh, I'd fuck it up.

I’ve been lying here thinking of you, Sleeping all over the truth,

Saying I want to know.

““I stopped for a second. If you remember everything, I wanted to say, and if you are really like me, then before you leave tomorrow, or when you’re just ready to shut the door of the taxi and have already said goodbye to everyone else and there’s not a thing left say in this life, then, just this once, turn to me, even in jest, or as an afterthought, which would have meant everything to me when we were together, and, as you did back then, look me in the face, hold my gaze, and call me by your name.””

““I think she was afraid to love sometimes. I think it scared her. She was the type to like things that were concrete, like the ocean. Something you could point to and know what it was. I think that’s why she always struggled with God. And I think that’s why she also struggled with love. She couldn’t touch it. She couldn’t hold on to it and make sure it never changed.””
