This is how I love. I barter what I own and exchange it for your happiness, hoping it's enough to make you full.

The worst part about having mental health issues is that you're seemingly required to have a breakdown in order for people to understand how hard you were trying to hold yourself together.

I don't want to see stores looted or even buildings burn. But African Americans have been living in a burning building for many years, choking on the smoke as the flames burn closer and closer. Racism in America is like dust in the air. It seems invisible - even if you're choking on it -until you let the sun in. Then you see it's everywhere. As long as we keep shining that light, we have a chance of cleaning it wherever it lands. But we have to stay vigilant because it's always still in the air.

I want your kiss, upon my lips I want your hand, gripping my wrist I want your heart, beaten apart So you can feel how you left my soul down to rot.'

is when you have a persistent sense of heartbreak and gut-wrench, the physical sensations become intolerable and you will do anything to make those feelings disappear. And that is really the origin of what happens in human pathology. People take drugs to make it disappear, and they cut themselves to make it disappear, and they starve themselves to make it disappear, and they have *** with anyone who comes along to make it disappear, and once you have these horrible sensations in your body, you'll do anything to make it go away.'
