We have nothing to lose, nothing to gain, nothing we desired anymore- except to make our lives into a work of art. - Lana Del Rey

in my veins that roll you run citrus watercolor images of serpents on orange trees quietly arise and grow sweet in my midst

Thank you for being here for bearing witness to my vastness Through the years I’ve called you in and out of my orbit You, in your madness

I once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet, but upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky that I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken.
But I didn't really mind because I knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted, and then losing it to know what true freedom is.
When the people I used to know found out what I had been doing, how I'd been living, they asked me why - but there's no use in talking to people who have home.
They have no idea what it's like to seek safety in other people - for home to be wherever you lay your head.
