weltschmerz. it’s the depression you feel when the world as it is does not line up with the world as you think it should be. i live in a big goddamned weltzschermez ocean, you know? and so do you. and so does everyone. because everyone thinks it should be possible to keep falling and falling forever, to feel the rush of the air on your face as you fall, that air pulling your face into a brilliant goddamned smile. and that should be possible. you should be able to fall forever.

it’s all about falling
you land and gt up so you can fall again
it’s all about falling
i won’t be afraid to hit that wall again

maybe tonight you’re scared of falling, and maybe there’s somebody here or somewhere else you’re thinking about, worrying over, fretting over, trying to figure out if you want to fall, or how and when you’re gonna land, and i gotta tell you friends that to stop thinking about the landing, because it’s all about falling.

it is so hard to accept that life is falling. falling and landing and falling and landing. i agree it’s not ideal. i agree.

is that what relationships become? a reduced version of the hurt, nothing else let in. it was more than that.

it’s too easy to see an X as cross-out. it’s not, because there’s no way to cross out something like that. the X is a diagram of two paths.

Love is the most common miracle.

-  Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan

my point is that there are times when you just have to let it all out. all of the anger, all of the pain.

in my recent experience, i’d say hurt tends to drown out sorry.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but everything goes better for you when you talk to people.

I don’t want to screw you. I just love you. When did who you want to screw become the whole game? Since when is the person you want to screw the only person you get to love? It’s so stupid, Tiny! I mean, Jesus, who gives a fuck about sex?! People act like it’s the most important thing humans do, but come on. How can our sentient fucking lives revolve on something slugs can do. I mean, who you want to screw and whether you screw them? Those are important questions, I guess. But they’re not that important. You know what’s important? Who would you die for? Who do you wake up at five forty-five in the morning for even though you don’t even know why he needs you? Whose drunken nose would you pick?!
