"Anyone who cares about you has to realize that you need a little looking after."

Letters to Milena, Franz Kafka

[...] my terrible and wonderful angel.

Benjamin Tammuz, from 'Minotaur', tr. Kim Parfitt & Mildred Budny

with such a hell in your heart and your head, how can you live? how can you love?

If you die first you have to promise to always haunt me

✞ 666 ✞

I’ll haunt the world inside you 

Fiona Apple, Slow Like Honey

Lana girl forever ♾🫀

Velimir Khlebnikov, Lyrics

Stevie Smith, from “Not Waving But Drowning”, Collected poems

"It surprises me, how a small gesture can feel so very big. How sometimes you don't realize the nervousness or sadness you were holding deep inside until the touch of someone you love lets it all out of you, like your entire body is exhaling."

– Lucy Keating, "Dreamology"
