I buried myself in the bodies of other men so I could feel something other than the depression that was rolling in like a fog bank. - Saeed Jones

"You never forget your first "faggot." Because the memory, in its way, makes you. It becomes a spine for the body of anxieties and insecurities that will follow, something to hang all that meat on. Before you were just scrawny; now you're scrawny because you're a faggot. Before you were just bookish; now you're bookish because you're a faggot."

Tears don't always just fall; sometimes they rip through you, like storm-painted gusts instead of mere raindrops.

Some songs take women places men cannot
follow.
