One sitting outside the door while conversing on the phone while the other doesn't know of this is something I love sO much foran inexplicable reason. I feel it's just the fact that he's so close to you and yet something separates you; the fact that you are overwhelmed and maybe afraid for you know not what this close future holds. I dunno boy I just love it. I'd open the door and crumble into his embrace and sob incessantly but that's dramatic maybe [I'd do it nonetheless idc bitches]

alike many fellow mortals, home was my first grave.

"We do not dislike everything that shines, but we do prefer a pensive lustre to a shallow brilliance, a murky light that, whether in a stone or an artefact, bespeaks a sheen of antiquity... We do love things that bear the marks of grime, soot, and weather, and we love the colours and the sheen that call to mind the past that made them."
