A moment, a look
I saw the sun wake up
Behind your smile
Reminds me
That I can try to forget you
But you always will be
The wave that drags me
Who takes me to your sea
I get lost in your eyes
And diving without thinking
If I'll be back
I can try to forget you
But you always will be
The wave that drags me
Who takes me to your sea
Engage me and take me
Far from here
Você sempre será, de Marjorie Estiano (Portuguese to English)

"El tiempo no arregla nada, tan solo saca a la luz toda la suciedad que uno va acumulando con el paso de los años. Empiezas ignorando una de esas pelusas inofensivas que se acumulan en la esquina del salón y cuando quieres darte cuenta estás de mierda hasta el cuello".
La teoría de los archipiélagos de Alice Kellen.

When Matt Haig said "I wanted to be dead" and then in the next line he said "no, that's not quite right. I didn't want to be dead, I just didn't want to be alive." And there's an Arabic saying that goes by: "If you want to die, throw yourself in the ocean. You will find yourself fighting to survive. You don’t want to kill yourself. You want to kill something inside of you". And I think that's so accurate and painful to describe what's going on with most of us.

My obsession with death,
Was one that I had late discovered.
Probably because I never understood;
What peace was - against dying.
Had you not made me yours,
Had you not left me in the middle of nowhere,
Had I never once been so restless,
I would never have felt,
What peace was.
And had I never been at peace,
I would never have felt,
How death could;
Make you mine.
- priyal//only death could do us part//

Stuck in me, I've always been alone
Lonely you didn't expect
What caught my attention are his eyes that look like
Wrap me warmly and make me vibrate
