    You never loved me; you loved the sickness in me.
  • gabrielamchl29546has quoted4 years ago
    most of us needed a little something extra to be okay.
  • Sofiahas quoted7 years ago
    But wouldn’t you rather be real and flawed, then some synthetic perfect girl who never really lived?”
  • Alex Fitchhas quoted7 years ago
    All of me stitched together and straining at the seams.
  • Alex Fitchhas quoted7 years ago
    My body is both weapon and wound, predator and prey. I will self-destruct without any help.

    It makes me wonder what makes anybody family. I think that maybe for some people, family is just the people you’re standing next to when awful things happen.
