I Think You Are Having A Different Sort Of Heartbreak. Maybe A Kind Of Heartbreak Of Being In The World

“I think you are having a different sort of heartbreak. Maybe a kind of heartbreak of being in the world when you don’t know how to be. If that makes any sense?”

— Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces

It’s so weird whenever i see a writer or poet say they don’t read other people’s work because they don’t want their style to be influenced like huh art is a buffet and eating a lot of different foods is only going to make your own cooking better and more interesting baby stop falling for the trap of ‘originality’ you’ll end up just bland and repetitive and boring

i always forget "fuck" is a bad word. it's like a brother to me
