"Madness Is The Inability To Communicate Your Ideas. It's As If You Were In A Foreign Country, Able To

"Madness is the inability to communicate your ideas. It's as if you were in a foreign country, able to see and understand everything that's going on around you, but incapable of explaining what you need to know of of being helped, because you don't understand the language they speak there. "

The cruelest thing God did was making me the most creative person (I have ideas and visions of what I want to make) with absolutely no skill or motivation

AN INCOMPLETE LIST: THINGS I LOVE ABOUT HRH PRINCE HENRY OF WALES:

is it so terrible a thing, for me to want you to have eyes for only me? like it’s a sin to look at anyone else the same way you look at me?

Scars

Torture me Maim me Mutilate me For I will take that pain happily Tear me apart limb by limb Throw me to the wolves Slit my wrist or Hang me from a noose For these scars will show won't they These will show the world I hurt Pain courses through my veins Emotional scars don't matter much do they They never signify pain It's all in your head they say Those scars don't even hurt Then why does the shatter of the heart resound louder than that of glass Why do these mental scars bleed so much more than those on my hands They don't matter much But they hurt so much more Why would you worry about something that doesn't even show So hurt me physically In all the ways I've been hurt emotionally To see if they would care then And till that day comes I'll sit here in the pool Of my imaginary blood Hoping for a day They care about a broken heart As much as they care about a broken bone
