have you ever seen a slave in gold chains? i have never seen so much golden slave flesh melted and turned to candle wax.

night

this is about sleep deprivation and crying

"scouring my notes app in search of forlorn fraying fragments one could consider 'poetry' if one had partaken in reality-altering substances. these fragments may appear mysterious in origin, but they were born in the shower and hastily transcribed upon my cellular phone..." - dahlia, the teenage girl who fell to earth
