My life is a collection of quotes

I have an obsession with quotes because other people are so much better than I am at putting my feeling into words.

 

I have always wondered who's arms I would run and fall into if I were drunk in a room with everyone I have ever loved. Furthermore, I wonder who would still catch me.

Last year I lost myself; I hit rock bottom.

 

Intoxicated with my madness, I'm in love with sadness.

 

The hardest thing is to kill the monster inside you, without killing yourself in the process.

 

I started laughing, but all I wanted to do was cry.

 

I pretend it doesn't bother me, but I just want to explode.

 

I'm in a battle with myself, and the worst part is winning.

 

I like to look at other peoples' wrists just to make sure they're okay. Then I remember they could be like me, master's at hiding.

 

I feel like screaming because I don't have anyone to talk to.

 

Why should I apologize for the monster I've become? No one ever apologized for making me this way.

 

I have so much to say, but no one listens.

 

I hope you never see me the way I see myself.
