Anaïs Nin, from a diary entry featured in Trapeze: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anais Nin, 1947-1955

i love being a little freak on tumblr nobody can stop me
Emily Dickinson, from her poem titled "1188," featured in The Emergency Poet
the feminine urge to stay gone. be unseen, be unavailable, be unheard of. disappear.
there is good, maybe, very soon
endless possibilities, I am at the edge
every step I could hurl
I'm not used to hope working
the world will need to earn my trust again
On healing:
I'm trying to be beautiful and to heal
but im dying and it's hard
to heal beautifully...
I want to get through this and be suprised there's still good left in this world
but I wonder if I'm living the life of a girl who dies young, chaotic and brief, mostly unknown, morning news
fall will come again
and this time I will not be in a hospital bed
and I will not be waken up at 5am just to be put under for ect treatments, wishing I won't wake up
the air is gonna be thin and free
and the cloud will protect me and the rain will wet my eyes
not my tears
