Forgetting your headphones when you've got hours of travelling ahead of you brings such a unique form of disappointment and hurt

Chiharu Shiota: In Silence (2002)

More often than not we find answers in silence and not in words.

In Silence art installation by Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota, 2008

I'm not the kind of girl who gets loved out loud.

The love that's made for me comes in whispers against my hair, or private notes so that no one may know.

I've never had someone be proud to love me, to shout it from the hilltops and hold me close where everyone can see.

I am loved, behind closed doors, in soft voices and lingering touches.

I am loved so long as it's a silent affair.

"do it again" ... what if I cry

THEM PLAYING MUSIC LIKE THIS AFTER IZZY IS OUT IS SO FUNNY

hmm i'm beginning to see a pattern here.

lu guang absolutely feral at the thought of losing xiaoshi

geto deadass fighting back kenjaku at the mere voice of gojo

Chiharu Shiota: 'In Silence' (2002)

Sometimes we mess up with words. We don’t always know what the right thing to say is. Just hold their hand for as long as it takes until they heal. Silence has plenty to say.

I'm rewatching the exorcist and yeah. okay. okay. I get why moviegoers 1973 were shitting their pants

sometimes it's okay not to be okay. it's okay to not show anyone what you're going through while it's okay to show it too. it's okay to feel like you've hit the rock bottom and not rise up while it's also okay to give it all and rise up.

this song is just so perfect for when I feel down or whenever I feel the world has come crashing down one me.

Joy Division - Atmosphere (Official Lyric Video)

Walk in silence Don't walk away, in silence See the danger Always danger Endless talking Life rebuilding Don't walk away Walk in silence Don't turn away, in silence Your confusion My illusion Worn like a mask of self-hate Confronts and then dies Don't walk away People like you find it easy Naked to see Walking on air Hunting by the rivers Through the streets Every corner abandoned too soon Set down with due care Don't walk away, in silence Don't walk away
