“How empty & meaningless life is – we bury a person, we accompany them to the grave, throw 3 spadefuls of earth on them; we ride out in a carriage, ride home in a carriage, we find consolation in the thought that we have a long life ahead of us, but how long is seven times ten years?Â
Why not settle it all at once, why not stay out there and go along down into the grave and draw lots to see to whom will befall the misfortune of being the last of the living who throws the last 3 spadefuls of […]
Many of us have been told, “Your problems aren’t that bad. They don’t add up to suicide,†or, “If you only took 15 pills, you weren’t really serious.â€
We have a condition that causes others to feel uncomfortable. They reduce their discomfort by using denial, belittlement and minimization on the seriousness of our situation. While most of this denial is due to their fear concerning the possibility of our death, a part of it has another source. They may also have had or be afraid of having bad periods in their own lives, and their denial on our vulnerability to […]
You see the heart symbolizes so much in both our society and various veins of creative writing. The human heart symbolizes; life, love, emotional anguish, and even endurance (e.g. the durability of the human heart is notoriously difficult to burn/destroy completely).
So an individual that has gone through a lot of emotional and or romantic pain would naturally choose to injure their chest/heart area of the body in order to send a message to the people they left behind, perhaps only one person in particular. Or […]
“Let love but gently touch the strings,
   ‘Twill all be sweet again!” Â
“Kindness glides about my house.
Dame Kindness, she is so nice!
The blue and red jewels of her rings smoke
In the windows, the mirrors
Are filling with smiles.
What is so real as the cry of a child?
A rabbit’s cry may be wilder
But it has no soul.
Sugar can cure everything, so Kindness says.
Sugar is a necessary fluid,
Its crystals a little poultice.

“I am where the loneliest souls gather..
Though I remained all alone,
But may these moments be eternal..
May this dark yet starlit sky shine on me
Forever!”…
Everyone dies.. but not everyone truly lives.
“If a person were to awake from a dream in which he experienced a hundred years of happiness, and another were to awake from a dream in which he had experienced but a brief moment of happiness,
Once awake, the situation would be the same for both because neither could ever return to that happiness.
In the same way, whether our life is long or short, at the time of death everything ends […]
~Arthur Schopenhauer on Suicide ~
Studies In Pessimism Full Article
“In my chief work I have explained the only valid reason existing against suicide on the score of mortality. It is this: that suicide thwarts the attainment of the highest moral aim by the fact that, for a real release from this world of misery, it substitutes one that is merely apparent. But from a mistake to a crime is a far cry; and it is as a crime that […]

Dream within a Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow–
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that […]
 To what_Is_Love13, the time will come when we shall all become angels,
just dont go on your own yet, for you are not alone.
what is love? love is you,
love is when someone reaches out and touches you..

Laura’s Last words.
“I waited for my mother to walk in. “Laura, I am sick of running up and down these stairs,
now get up.” I would look at her
“What is wrong now?” “My tummy hurts and I feel sick”.
Do we try to help those who are suffering because we actually care.. or do we actually try to help and comfort those who are in pain because we wish somebody once did that for us.?
help someone > we help ourselves , so does this make us altruistic or selfish?
Attila The Hun
Sometimes it seems to me my blood gushes
like a fountain, in rhythmic sobs,
I hear it flowing with long murmurs,
but I grope in vain to find the wound.
All across the city, as in a field of honour,
it spills out, transforming paving stones to islands,
quenching Every creature’s thirst and painting all nature red.
Often I have asked strong wine to numb for a day the terror consuming me:
“Destroy your primitivity, and you will most probably get along well in the world, maybe achieve great success — but Eternity will reject you.
Follow up your primitivity, and you will be shipwrecked in temporality, but accepted by Eternity.”
~ Polygon Window (Aphex Twin) – Quino-Phec ~
How countlessly they congregate
O’er our tumultuous snow,
Which flows in shapes as tall as trees
When wintry winds do blow!–
As if with keeness for our fate,
Our faltering few steps on
To white rest, and a place of rest
Invisible at dawn,–
And yet with neither love nor hate,
Those stars like some snow-white
Minerva’s snow-white marble eyes
Without the gift of sight.
Robert Frost ~ Stars
My Father holding my baby cousin,
lucky are those who exit so early from such a cruel & lonely world,
cold quiet & unbearable.
“I suspected that my father’s ripe old age was not a divine blessing, but rather a curse; that our family’s excellent mental gifts served only to excite us mutually; I felt the stillness of death rise around me when in my father I saw a doomed man destined to survive us all, a cross on  the grave of his own hopes. A guilt must be weighing on our entire family;  God’s […]
“The Moon’s man stands in his shell, bent under a bundle of sticks.
The light falls chalk & cold upon our bedspread. His teeth are chattering among the leprous peaks & craters of those extinct volcanoes.
He also against black frost would pick sticks, would not rest untill his own lit room outshone sunday’s ghost of sun; Now works his hell of mondays in the Moon’s ball, Fireless, seven chill seas chained to his ankle”…
