Floored

"We don't always know who to be.
Except a man or a woman, or a lady, or the other.
We aren't as sure as men. Or as women. 
I used to think everyone knew, 
and I was waiting for the day when I would know. 
But it doesn't matter in a world where you can be anybody-anythinganytime and anyway you like, 
where money is the answer to everything, 
where everything is calmer 
and more obscure than we are. 
We can be everything if we want to."

Flume



Truth has been. The same waters have three times bathed me and have three times drowned me. 
Sometimes I laugh, Sometimes I cry; Sometimes I forget; more often I remember. 
The trees keep me here. 
It is because words that I laugh.

Winged Life

"I, living with my own heart and addicted, body and soul,
 to the most intense and painful meditation - 
she, roaming carelessly through life, 
with no thought of the shadows in her path 
or the silent flight of raven-winged hours" - Poe, "Berenice"
