I, in my monotonous naïvety

Assume the world has ended

But you emerge laughingly

To breakfast

on shame and yearning (pt.2)

[somekindofweight]

are u ever sick w longing. and i don't just mean romantic longing. i mean longing for a place you barely get to see, longing for friends you no longer have, longing for feelings you might have left behind in your childhood, longing for creativity, longing for a rich and more expansive life, longing for less inhibition. longing for more passion. longing for ur life to be so incandescent w something it thaws all the frost in ur bones. are u ever so consumed w it it rends ur heart in two. do u understand me

Last night I finally found some poems that save my life a little bit

They were written by the Brazilian catholic archbishop Hélder Câmara, and very religious and spiritual in a beautiful way.

I think some people's religion calls them to live in a state of compassion and wonder that I find to be very profound

I don't know what I think about faith anymore but I think this guy understood something.

"Do not condemn us to be alone when together. Allow us to be together when alone."
