''Something to tell u''
''Secrets are my currency: I deal in them for a living. The secrets of desire,of what people really want, and of what they fear the most. The secrets of why love is difficult, sex complicated,living painful and death so close and yet placed far away. Why are pleasure and punishment closely related? How do our bodies speak? Why do we make ourselves ill? Why do u want to fail? Why is pleasure so hard to bear?.
Giving sorrow other words, I hear of how people’s desire and guilt upsets and terrorises them, the mysteries that burn a hole in the self and distort and even cripple the body, the wounds of experience, re-opened for the good of the soul as it made over.
At the deepest level people are madder than they want to believe. You will find that they fear being eaten,and are alarmed by their desire to devour others.''
I don’t want to be loved. I want to be desired.Love is safety,but desire is foul.Give me excess of it..The awful thing is, the less one is capableof sex,the more one is capable of love, the pure thing. Nobody but u understands me.
I like every day with a murder.A real one.Killer,me.
