“I have a habit of falling in love with souls who have yet to be at peace with their bodies, their minds, their weaknesses. I try to build them, to find the parts of them that are missing in me. I end up with holes in my chest.”

Quote
i’ve known a life where canvases have crashed into one another. where god broke himself from the eyes of humanity. where hummingbirds sipped nectar. and snakes. poison. i’ve known a life that is hard yet beautiful. fading. and constant. a life that is... bound. holy. and free. | duality ii
