He Wanders Alone But Safe In His Loneliness. Confused But Comforted By His Confusion. A Blanket Of Bewilderment

I'm a prisoner to my addiction

I'm addicted to a life that's so empty and so cold

I'm a prisoner to my decisions

Prisoner by The Weeknd and Lana Del Rey

Average dark academia reader be like yes I'm gonna ignore the obvious point of the book (warning against elitism and living in a fantasy) and romanticise my way out of everything until i find my own group of pretentious friends. What are you gonna do, stop me??

the world is so beautiful by the way. and it will knock u off your feet time and time again. like an old love u forgot about it will meet you in the middle when everything else is so blurry and doesn’t really make sense and it will bring you to where you thought you would never find your way back. it will show u time and time again there’s beauty there’s joy there’s life in everything and that sometimes losing it is the right way to finding it

This was THE scene!! The way Barbie was afraid of being perceived as “ugly” and trying to avoid aging just for her to see people in the real world and understand what it really means. The way she softly says “you’re beautiful” and the woman plays along with her by saying “I know”. The way it was her first good experience with someone in the real world. Everything about it was just perfect

Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind / I wanna get off, but I keep riding the ride / I never really noticed that I had to decide / To play someone's game, or live my own life / And now I do / I wanna move / Out of the black (out of the black) / Into the blue (into the blue)

- Lana Del Rey

mentally, i am sitting in a forest and reading my favourite books and listening to music while laying on the grass

The line “slow motion double vision in a rose blush” is literally Taylor’s most poetic gorgeous line ever. Not only does it sound so lush, but it’s the perfect description of that moment when you’re walking by your crush and you two make eye contact for the briefest of moments- maybe one you even has to do a double take- and you’re seeing them through rose colored glasses because they are just so beautiful in that one moment

starry nights, enemies to lovers, annotations, graffiti, mixtapes, art galleries, anklets, sunsets, heart-shaped lockets, bonfires, libraries, constellations, love letters, soft lighting, messy hair, ice cream parlours, misted windows, blueberries, full moons, dark clouds, red roses

i can be trusted on a nature walk i promise. i promise i will stay on the trail and will not run off into the forest never to be seen again i promise

Sometimes I think about how different some books would be if they had been written by other authors.

For instance, if sylvia plath had written tsh it would've been in camilla's pov and everything would have been so much more unhinged. We'd get more of bunny's daddy issues and francis would've tried committing suicide back when henry told him he liked gucci.
