“I don't know how to love my friends in a way friend loves a friend; I only love them like they're part of me, like a parent loves their child;

with a fear they'll fell off a bike, with a fear they'll cut themselves out as they grow apart

and if they throw rocks at you, you'll still be a mother, you'll still lick their wounds, and you'll still cry alone behind closed doors

maybe that's a definition of a bad parent, but all I know is that I've been a parent my whole life; and I wish you had a better friend.

and I wish you had a better mother.”

[Butavka // bekysfairy]

When Richard Siken said "sorry about the blood in your mouth, i wish it was mine", when Hozier said, "if i was born as a blackthorn tree, i’d wanna be felled by you"

[rini-descartes]

"Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go."

If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.

"Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.” -Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You #autumsgreen #aesthetic #darkacademia#darkacademiaaesthetic #aesthetic #academia#academiaaesthetic #henrywinter#deadpoetssociety #poetry #romanticism#classicliterature #classiclit #thegoldfinch#killyourdarlings #oscarwildequotes #oscarwilde #hozier #bookstagram #books https://www.instagram.com/p/CTzE1YbLZCc/?utm_medium=tumblr

"There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves, we feel that no one else has a right to blame us. It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution."

- The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde

we can't live without tenderness

The fact that Hozier's high notes are so mellifluous; not loud, not noisy, not glittery but it has got sheen to it, literal ecstasy... Like he could even scream and it would sound like angels singing <3

That is what's called Making Love to Music!
