- labyrinth -

the defiance of an age

no more than words on a page

remember those days you whispered

the phrase, “you spend your whole life stuck

in the labyrinth, thinking about how

you'll escape it” and, well,

the present?

nevermind i forget the times

i see myself in forlorn places

(and) empty spaces

i'm lost in the labyrinth of my mind

you can’t help but escape it

i’m losing myself again

don’t let me

lose myself

again

lost in the labyrinth

of time...

don’t

lie

Looking for Alaska by John Green 🚬

[peacefulbagofbones]

i don’t believe in god, but i believe that you’re my savior.

[woodlandfairy10]

Looking for alaska will forever be one of the greatest piece of YA literature that john green has bestowed uopn this world amd i will defend it till the day that i die When he wrote " I was gawky and she was gorgeous and i was hopellesly boring and she was endlessly fascinating so i walked back to my room and collapsed on my bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, i was drizzle and she was hurricane." And when he wrote " Y'all smoke to enjoy it. I smoke to die." And when he wrote " I know so many last words, but i'll never know hers." The way my outlook on life completely changed when i read this i loved every aecond of it. Alaska's death will always remind me how grief and guilt play such a pivitol role in people's life and how life without meaning, without an identity of self is not really a life.

“When I look at my room, I see a girl who loves books”

🎭 I’m tired and I’m bruised

“Shhhh,” she said. “I’m sleeping.”

Just like that. From a hundred miles an hour to asleep in a nanosecond. I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane.

Looking For Alaska, John Green

ALASKA YOUNG.

“Sometimes you lose a battle. But mischief always wins the war.”

— John Green, Looking for Alaska

[aesthete-sonder]

"How will I ever get out of this labyrinth of suffering?"

“The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.”

The book's level of pain and rawness is out of this world. John Green's book, Looking for Alaska has stayed with me ever since I read it. It's unforgettable.

“You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth,

thinking about you ll escape one day, and how awesome it will be,

and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it.

You just use the future to escape present.”

- Alaska Young

if it's meant to be, it will be

[esotericblvd]

Throwin’ poison seeds into the wind Make the poison tree to grow in me begin Let your branches fork my veins Let your honey tide in me Blood lovin’, poison whisperin’

Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrow flow in me Take away my blood and bones Make your flowers deep inside of me

Least I’ll still have company My inside, tiny poison tree I’ll seal my love in me Tiny beautiful poison tree

Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrows sow in me Turn me into a poison tree

Turn me into a poison tree Make my shadow go away Make my branches strong and hard Make my leaves flower and spread Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me Turn me into a poison tree
