Everything good about them starts to hurt,
          doesn't it?
          
          Once you begin to realize that

          They were just biding time.
          
          While you were running towards them,
          they were searching for the exit.
          
          When you were m_ ss _ng them,
          they were looking for better people to see
          better places to be.
          
          When you were feeling C0nFus3d,
          their friends were laughing with them - at your expen$e.

          high,
             they were getting             not feeling a thing.
          
          While you were giving them the benefit of the doubt,
          they were doubting you had any benefits.

“i. When I am quiet, please do not take it the wrong way. It just means that I am lost inside my own mind, trying to find a way out. 
          
          ii. When I stop replying, please don’t think that I am ignoring you. I’m just too sad to interact with anyone, and I tend to forget that I have people there for me.
          
          iii. If I’m yelling at you while crying, don’t walk away. Oh god please don’t. Just hold me until I forget about everything wrong in my life. 
          
          iv. I push away too much and if I do that then please don’t go. It’s just something I can’t stop doing, and I’m working on that. I really am.
          
          v. Please be careful with me, I break easily and I sometimes don’t always know how to put myself back together.”

Whenever you read a cancer booklet
          or website or whatever, they
          always list depression among the
          side effects of cancer. But, in fact,
          depression is not a side effect of
          cancer. Depression is a side effect
          of dying.

this message may be offensive
“I want to paint my life with mistakes and memories. 
          Bright and burning like the most exciting of books. 
          Every page a meaningful tale to tell. 
          Every page multicolored. 
          Every page worth remembering, for the sad or the happy for the bad and the worst. 
          I want to live not merely exist anymore. 
          And I’m tired of the misconception that people get from arguments like this. 
          I don’t mean drugs or sex or alcohol. 
          I mean road trips to unlikely places and campfires and jotting down constellations in the middle of nowhere were the loud city lights won’t dim the night sky. 
          I want to go to a concert and lose my voice with the vigor of the crowd. 
          I want to go on color runs and curse at myself when my hair looks a weird mix of green and pink for a week. 
          I want to stay up all night talking about the universe. 
          I want to ride a Farris wheel and not close my eyes when it hits it’s highest point. 
          I want to live life at its fullest without it being associated with alcohol or drugs or sex. 
          And I want to do it now with my parents trusting me. 
          Not at 18 when I’m bitter and angry and do most of it out of rebellious causes because fuck, 
          I spent all my life locked up in my room.”

"Because nobody tells you 
          that losing the person you love most in 
          the universe feels like dying. 
          They tell you it hurts 
          and they tell you it’s lonely 
          but they don’t tell you that it feels like something crawled 
          it’s way into your chest 
          and tore your heart out, 
          that inside your head you’re standing before a gaping blackness screaming 
          ‘give her back to me’ 
          until you choke 
          and beg every god in the sky to drown you in your own breath. 
          They don’t tell you that when you open your doors 
          and look up at the stars, 
          you can’t see them anymore, 
          that sometimes you’ll miss them until your body aches, 
          miss her until your heart breaks. 
          They don’t tell you that you’ll see her in everything, 
          everywhere, 
          and that her purple jacket on the chair will make you want to run 
          until your head spins 
          and your blood stops 
          because if you keep moving 
          then maybe God 
          maybe you won’t see her face as clearly as the day you first met her 
          because the image won’t have time to settle. 
          Because you can’t hide forever. 
          You cannot hide forever …. 
          They don’t tell you it makes you want to die. 
          Quietly. 
          Just … 
          Just quietly. 
          Slip into the night with no noise or audience. 
          They don’t tell you it kills you. 
          And they don’t tell you there will always be a wall, 
          an unbreachable, 
          unending wall, 
          that looms at the edge of all your horizons 
          and will wake you up in a cold sweat night after night after night. 
          They don’t tell you a lot of things, 
          really. 
          And you know, 
          I’m not sure they ought to.
          
          (I still don’t think pain is the most terrible thing in this terrible world.)”
