when meditation gets sexy: the novel
Such Small Hands
La Dispute
I think you saw me confronting my fear
It went up with the bottle and down with the beer
And I think you oughta stay away from here
There are ghosts in the walls and they crawl in your head through your ear
I think I saw you in my sleep, lover
I think I saw you in my dreams,
You were stitching up the seams
On every mangled promise that your body couldn’t keep
I think I saw you in my sleep
this song hurts my soul
did anyone play the game "four doors" as a kid?
i remember playing it with cousinsly friend of the family-types.
a “guide” was chosen to perform a sort of group-hypnosis that led you down a hallway where you saw four doors.
you opened one and then… all hell broke loose.

Why do you love the New York Subway in black and white as much as I do? <3
One for me and one for you!

Sleepyhead
Passion Pit
Sleepyhead - Passion Pit
And you said, it was like fire around the brim.
Burning solid, burning thin, the burning rim.
Like stars burning holes right through the dark.
Flicking fire like saltwater into my eyes.
You were one inch from the edge of this bed,
I dragged you back a sleepyhead
FACT: A pessimist is always alone. An optimist is always two people away from a threesome.
Listen
i’m not a ghost - who sings this?
and i know this isn’t normal, i’m drifting in and out of sleep
like my head just isn’t nothin’ but a place to store my dreams
where i’m happy, where i’m normal, where i’m lifted off my feet
and told - i’m not a ghost
“Unless it’s mad, passionate, extraordinary love, it’s a waste of your time. There are too many mediocre things in life. Love shouldn’t be one of them.”
—Dream for an Insomniac
“The foundation of all mental illness is the avoidance of legitimate suffering.”
—Carl Jung
