‘‘ Some proper dead joke though, innit ? ’’ Sammy mumbles, gesturing to his phone that lies between them. He doesn’t think much more needs to be said to clarify what he’s talking about. What most people have been talking about all day. ‘‘ all jokes aside n all that, what shit for brains thought it was funny ? Whoever it was, I reckon we could find ‘em if we rub our ‘eads together quick enough.

“you’re so polite with your sadness. you don’t want to ruin this for anyone.”

It’s odd, isn’t it? People die every day and the world goes on like nothing happened. But when it’s a person you love, you think everyone should stop and take notice. That they ought to cry and light candles and tell you that you’re not alone.

Kristina McMorris, Letters From Home (via survivingsiblingsuicide)

“Madness as a defense against terror. Madness as a defense against grief.”

— Susan Sontag, from As Consciousness Is Harnessed to Flesh: Journals and Notebooks 1964-1980

In truth, you like the pain. You like it because you believe you deserve it.
