Love letters written with fountain pens in the dim candlelight of a cozy mahogany studio to the soft underlying tune of a classical music vinyl while the stars collide and the memories abide.

The Secret History destroyed my life like what do you mean I can't drink wine and study classical literature and spend the nights in a countryside mansion with piano echoing through the dark halls and break through the confines of humanity in a bacchanal and commit a string of murders and try to escape but eventually kill myself in a blaze of glory, ultimately shattering the lives of the people around me? That I can't escape the cognitive mode of experience and transcend the accident of my moment of being? That I can't lose my self, lose it utterly? What do you mean I can't live without thinking?

poetic suffering

as much as i love this, why is it so sad. december is the month of cozy blankets and cuddling with your family and long naps in the afternoon and demanding presents when you don't even celebrate christmas. december is the month of rest, love

December. The month when things get sad again for no reason. When the sky is dark and life's scary, when the hopes of january are mixed with the reality of december, it's hurting and nostalgic and loud with such painful silence that is now getting difficult to bear.
