Literature Text

And when my breath catches
at every new letter
‘til I catch the return address
and when my heart flutters
at every fresh letter
I think I’d do better
to think of you less
Oh.
“I don’t want to be hospitalized
I’m going to be better soon
I’ll be happy and normal”

Finished Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and bawled. It's been a while since I cried to a book.

And Morrissey, your criminally vulgar shyness is bringing me back to old times, tapping back into that unrequited event I don't want to revisit.

But you're there with me,
standing at my shoulder,
and we're weeping together,
wiser and older
and you're singing and I
have now grown to rely
upon your voice, your lovely voice
and you leave me no choice
but to go back... and draw in those miserable lines
that time leaves empty, yes, and to see
exactly what went so very wrong for me.

and for that torment you put me through,

:heart:
