"Possibly when the professor insisted a little too emphatically upon the inferiority of women, he was concerned not with their inferiority, but with his own superiority. That was what he was protecting rather hot-headedly and with too much emphasis, because it was a jewel to him of the rarest price."

-Virginia Wolf [ A Room Of One's Own ]

Drugs isn't the problem. Drugs is the outlet. It's the escape. From reality. From the trauma, frome the abuse, from the shackles around your wrist. Drugs should never be the solution, and yet it seems like it's my only getaway. The only door I can seem to see. Illusion or hallucinations, I know it's all up in my head, this figurative door doesn't exist, but I can feel the handle twist in my palms. I can imagine the life behind it. I am free. I am crawled up on the sofa, unafraid, unconcerned. There is no you to pull the strings on my limbs, there is no you to corner me against the wall, to yell your speech in my face, to tighten your fingers against my flesh. There is no fear of safety, there is no fear of threats. There is no fear. And the white powder, the rolled cigarettes, the burning incense is simply the magic potion that awaits for me to fathom. Just a bit larger. Just a bit more. Just a bit more! I need a bit more. I need my dreams to last me a little longer. I need...an escape.

"Till at last the child's mind is these suggestions, and the sum of the suggestions is the child's mind. And not only the child's mind only. The adult's mind too - all his lifelong. The mind that judges and desires and decides - made up of these suggestions. But all these suggestions are our suggestions!"

- Aldous Huxley [ A Brave New World ]

"Death, I need my little addiction to you. I need that tiny voice who, even as I rise from the sea, all woman, all there, says kill me, kill me."

Photo

If it wasn’t for this shell of a body, I wouldn’t exist. If I wasn’t anchored to this corpse, where would I be? A lifeless soul, an empty casket, a hollow breeze. Where am I now? Like the sun, faithful in her promise, but empty in her words, I kiss the Earth goodnight, but you won’t feel the warmth of my lips. Goodnight. Goodbye. Farewell. Untied knots. Unsaid words. Undone. Undone like the walls of my grave.

"I miss her. I miss her so God damn much!"

"Then why'd you let her go?"

"Sometimes, when you look into their eyes, you realize, they don't want you to fight for them. They want you to put your trust in fate....the universe, or whatever is out there. They want you to put trust in your love. Their love. And it's...so hard! When you're so used to losing, how can I just *hope* to win?"

How strange, you didn't miss me all day to reply to me. Then why use the phrase 'I miss us' , like its some kind of compensation?

I'm only human, I will forget the sound of your voice in my ear. Each time I shower, your touch will fade. The scent of you will be lost from the pillow covers. And when your lips aren't touching mine, how can I be sure your love is not mere words? Soon all I'll have is the messages and pictures on my phone to prove you exist. To prove we were real. And when the voices in my head will say you never wanted me, I'll believe them.

I am inhabited by a cry,

Nightly it flaps out

Looking, with it's hooks, for something to love.

I am terrified by this dark thing

That sleeps in me;

All day I feel it's soft, feathery turnings, it's malignity.

-Sylvia Plath [ Elm ]

I won't forgive them. I won't forgive them for the way they've locked me within myself.

"I didn't want to wakeup. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wakeup from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare. "

"And what is that nightmare Craig?"

"Life."

There are days when I think you are the one. And then there are days were I realise I was a stand in all along.
