I am so terribly lonely today. My head has been spinning like the wheels of a car driving in circles, trying to go someplace nice but failing. My voice echoes off the walls of this empty house like caves, but worse. Colder. Less interesting. Less intricate. The television is on mute, and all I see are men arguing with one another, cuddling girls and sitting on chairs and crossing their arms...

This is a photo of my little brother and I, vacationing in the Gold Coast when we were little. We have our arms around each other and, although you can’t see, ice cream all over our mouths. Sometimes we fight. Sometimes we tell each other things we can’t tell anyone else. Sometimes we spend hours in the same room saying nothing, but it’s always okay. We know how to deal. We...

Hello
to the sudden influx of new followers. I like you very much. Here is a picture of my cousin’s cat Benjy, taken over a year ago with my Fujifilm Finepix 3500x, which I haven’t used in a long time. Benjy is fat now. Feel free to ask me (or Benjy) a question at http://gypsyspeak.tumblr.com/ask

chasingvans asked: I miss you more than you could know.
I miss our heart to heart conversations and our stupid, crazy ideas. I miss the really long texts you send. I miss laughing at your effortless humour and having someone intelligent and fair to talk to, someone mature beyond her years and someone as exquisite as you.
I miss you so much :(

Do you know the feeling you get when you sit for far too long, and then stand up and stretch? The whirlwind of instances that sweep within your head, down your spine, through your fingers and toes. It’s almost the same as when you dip your cold, numb hands into a basin of warm water. It’s a moment when you feel almost everything and nothing, at the same time. Cold and warmth....

whoiskrista-deactivated20100630 asked: If your blog captures your true being than I love who you are.

If your blog is who you are behind closed doors... than I think you should show the world the truth, because you really are amazing.

I don’t know what to do. I want to help, but I need you to tell me how. I’ve never been good at this sort of thing on my own.

psychodelic: Hoje pensei sério: se me perguntassem o que mais desejo na vida, não saberia responder. Quero tudo. Mas esse “tudo” é tão grande, tão vago, que me sinto estonteado. É preciso ir limitando meu sonho, apagando as linhas supérfluas, corrigindo as arestas, até restar somente o centro, o âmago, a essência. Mas qual será esse centro, meu Deus, que não encontro? - Caio Fernando Rough...

If there were no clouds in the sky, the sun would stretch its hand through the dusty kitchen window and sprinkle rainbow coloured droplets all over the cabinets, the tables, the walls and floors and my skin, all at 8:30 in the morning, and never again throughout the day.

wonderbirds: coco            (R) says: (6:14:41 PM) im sure you’ll be fine coco            (R) says: (6:14:42 PM) more than sure coco            (R) says: (6:14:44 PM) im positive coco            (R) says: (6:14:47 PM) HIV POSITIVE. I think the most amazing part of that conversation was the fact that I typed “more than sure” in one second.

I can hear fireworks in the distance. They sound like bombs and I keep imagining people trying to raid homes, killing families and children and screaming profanities without the slightest bit of consideration, of love. If I could see them it would be a different story. But I can’t.

I know we’re breaking rules when we do it, but I love when we walk all the way down to the bus stop with the spaceships on them, so Cartwright can smoke his cigarette(s) and chew on lemons and tell us stories about tall men and young children and talking hamsters, while we toss coins and pat the dirt into curious shapes with our shoes. There are many things wrong with the lot of them...

I’m watching an opera on ABC1 and two girls just knee’d their guys where it hurts and threw rose petals at their faces like rocks. I love the opera.

I keep having dreams on Saturday mornings. They shake me open although they’re never nightmares — no running, no chasing, no screaming or killing or crying. They never make sense and they’re never a bright revelation and they’re not even that funny. They just make me cry when I wake up, and I think it’s always because they always involve someone I miss, and that is...

An excerpt from my pre-bedtime book.
“Yeah, and?” said Martin. “You seem to have omitted the part about why you wanted to kill yourself.” “That’s it,” I said. “This disease that dries up all the blood in your veins.” “That’s just what happens to everyone,” said Martin. “It’s called ‘getting older’. I felt like that even before I’d...

I’d forgotten what it was like to lace words with such frustration but I guess this is it. This is always going to be it.

When I was three I thought the clouds were following me. My mother told me they were so big they only looked as though they were moving, but they weren’t. They were too lazy to move. Too heavy. They liked to daydream in the skies and sail softly across the horizon and trickle tears once in a while when they began to miss the sun. Perhaps it was the smell of my hair.
