But damn if there isn’t anything sexier
than a slender boy with a handgun,
a fast car, a bottle of pills.

i. You think you understand the world, that you’re somehow conquering it but you’re just stumbling in the dark looking for something solid to grab, someone solid to grab. You’re just a kid stealing pills from your mother’s medicine cabinet. You’re just a thief. Always just. Just a boy. Just a cokehead. Just got in the way. Just made him angry. Just needs to relax. Just take it like a man. Just get in and get out. Just come with me. Just stay. Just make it stop. Just make it all stop.
ii. You want to be the hero of the story, but you’re not even the hero of your own story. Boys like you don’t get to be heroes, they get to die, forgotten acts in long lost plays.
iii. You’re on your knees in front of this boy and you finally understand what religion is. It’s worshiping him, his hands in your hair, your name on his lips. You’re mouth whispering sweet prayers against his skin, while he curses at your touch. You wake up alone in an empty bed and remember why you despise religion, filling your head with lies of a promised land.
iv. You only like yourself when you’re drunk, you only like others when you’re drunk. They flock to you, feast on your goods, but still leave you empty. They never stay even the ones who do, choose others. You know he’d tell you different, try you make you know you are loved, but he is made to say that. You made him that way, birthed from the hell that is your mind, the perfect demon. Dark eyes, mouth made of sin, you’d follow him to Hades just to see his mirror image one more time.
v. You’ve been playing with fire ever since you could remember, blackening your fingers over candle flames, setting fire to leaves, to paper, to your curtains, flicking your lighter, watching the sparks dance away in the wind. You were mesmerized by wood fires as a child, watching the flames lick at the wood your Mother said to not sit so close, or you’d get burnt, she was right. You would get burnt.
vi. When the show ends and the curtains close the audience goes home, no flowers, no standing ovation. Just lights out. You’re alone in the dark and you finally can breathe.
- conversations with your subconscious part ii.
He lived by one rule; no one called him Joseph, unless they had a death wish. But rules were made to be broken. [also on AO3]
(when dog metaphor’s get wildly out of hand…warnings for depression, drugs, dying dogs?? not real ones but idk, sadness, too many dog metaphors with a side of biblical references, also no constant tense used because lol why bother with that it’s 4am idc)

It was something my mother use to say to me, don’t forget to feed the dog. Now she didn’t mean the actual dog-she wasn’t a fan of animals-she meant the metaphorical ones that lived inside of us. You know, you’ve heard the Native American tale-which isn’t actually a Native American story at all but originated from a white dude, what I pay attention in class-of the two wolves. The white and black. The good and bad. The selfless and the selfish.
There’s a black dog and there’s a white dog, depends on which you feed,
depends on which damn dog you live with.
He’s asshole, but I enjoyed drawing his portrait
leader of our merry men
ok, book is a good thing, but we ALL KNOW WHO IS REAL MR IMPOSSIBLE
