I don’t
know
I don’t know
how to stop
Stop the tears from falling
Stop the fears from showing
Stop a life from being wasted
Please stop me
Stop me from wasting my life
Stop wasting a life on me
Vincent Van Gogh
Karl Bryullov, ‘Last Day of Pompeii’, (Details)
Thoughts run around in your head
Like trying to win a marathon
You want to listen to what is said
Try to pause and halt for some
But you’re distracted
And then they’re gone
"To forget, to forget ...", Vahan Teryan (translated by Tathev Simonyan)
— Virginia Woolf
Jeanette Winterson, from "Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal," publ. in 2011
“Real tears are not those that fall from the eyes and cover the face, but those that fall from the heart and cover the soul.”
