There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.

So Close, So Far
thebillsvillebad:
she’s fused her aura so close to my soul that when she’s blue, i get cold.
turned older, turned bolder turned to her own personal soldier with every slight hue of her mood,
but picture the colors i could fill in our world when i feel she misses me too.

It's been a mad season.
I know you have a heavy heart - I can feel it when we kiss. So many girls stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it. But me, I’m not a gamble. You can count on me to split. The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won’t exist.
That awkward moment when you feel an actual...

And I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss. So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it. But me I’m not a gamble: you can count on me to split. The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won’t exist. You’re looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black. You just keep going to the bathroom always say...
It’s 4:30 A.M., and I’m sleepy. “Sex lamp” is on, and so is Max’s screen saver, with the falling green lights, and everyone’s asleep or maybe just hoping to dream.
It’s 4:30 A.M., and I’m exhausted. I wonder if it ever makes you feel this way too — staring at your clock at 4:30 A.M. wondering what’s keeping you going,...

It’s weird because a part of me wants to tell you everything, and a part of me does not, because there are some things I’ve done that are the heaviest, and that I am not really proud of. But you make me feel like I don’t have to explain myself, and that’s very different from what I am used to. And I don’t really like talking about myself anyway, but it seems like that’s all I...
It is very sad to me that some people are so intent on leaving their mark on the...

I got your love letters, corrected the grammar and sent them back. It’s true - romance is dead: I shot it in the chest, then in the head. I’m casualty-obsessed and I’ve forgiven death, I am indifferent yet I am a total wreck; I’m every cliche, but I simply do it best. I went to sleep a poet, and I woke up a fraud, To calm your nerves I’m feeling for my clothes...

I think it is so brave to say everything you mean. I don’t say half of the things I wish I could, and even still I wish I would shut up. I talk too much I think, and I am afraid that I might say something that would make someone not like me, or even worse, that would hurt someone’s feelings. But I don’t even think about this anymore. Right now I think about how much I want to be...
I've never actually enjoyed reading required texts...
“The love of story — the belief that your vision can be expressed only through story, that characters can be more “real” than people, that the fictional world is more profound than the concrete.
The love of the dramatic — a fascination with the sudden surprises and revelations that bring sea-changes in life.
The love of truth — the belief that lies cripple the...
“Ramses, why’d you put the frisbee in the fridge? It’s not perishable!”
I’m really really happy to be back. :)
Stop there, and let me correct it - I want to live a life from a new perspective.
Dorothy Parker - Interior
Her mind lives in a quiet room, A narrow room, and tall, With pretty lamps to quench the gloom And mottoes on the wall.
There all the things are waxen neat And set in decorous lines; And there are posies, round and sweet, And little, straightened vines.
Her mind lives tidily, apart From cold and noise and pain, And bolts the door against her heart, Out wailing in the rain.
When you see someone attractive and they're...

The dog days are over, the dog days are done. Can you hear the horses? ‘Cause here they come.
Nobody thinks it will work, do they? No. You just described every great success...

I love when you can call someone and start it off with “Hey, it’s me…” and you know they’ll know who you are.
The simple things. :P
I’m fascinated by the way the contemporary world has constructed this manic...

Best way of explaining the indie-boy-behavior-inspired-by-(500)-Days-of-Summer that is epidemic.

I feel like, like, how you matter is defined by the things that matter to you....
