And you know, I think you started making sense for the first time when you were drunk. Like, really drunk. When you said, “It’s easy to wish you were dead.” And you meant it, like you haven’t meant anything else. And you’re right. I don’t think anyone knows what it’s like to be sad. Oh, shut up. But you had a point, and though you couldn’t know it, I was rooting for you all along. Sure, your mother sucks, and your father left you, but what the fuck do you think is owed to you?
There will be a point, I hope when you’ll see the truth. That it’s so much harder to live than it is to give up.
Let me explain it to you in a way that maybe you’ll understand.
If you think of love as a lifeboat, then swim to shore. If you’re scared of dying alone, get a terrier. If you buy despair by the pound, keep the receipt. If you find it hard to choke down, don’t look for me.
