Henry Rollins playing with Black Flag, ca. early 1980s.

I will never say the things that I want to say to you. I know the damage it would do. I love you more than I hate my loneliness and pain.

Don’t do anything by half. If you love someone, love them with all your soul. When you go to work, work your ass off. When you hate someone, hate them until it hurts.

I used to fight the pain. But recently, this became clear to me: pain is not my enemy: it is my call to greatness.

Henry Rollins

I loved you. I loved your mind and the way you thought. I loved talking with you. I never thought I could care about someone as much as I cared about you, but I did.

~Henry Rollins

I want a soulmate who can sit me down, shut me up, tell me ten things I don't already know, and make me laugh. I don't care what you look like, just turn me on. And if you can do that, I will follow you on bloody stumps through the snow. I will do your windows. I will care about your feelings. Just have something in there.

I made this forever ago, forgot about it, and stumbled across it this morning. Bummer that I missed Henry's birthday by one day.

It is sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew.
