"If I killed myself tonight the stars would still appear the sun will still come out the earth would still rotate and the seasons would still change... So why not?"
Fuck this quote.
Fuck this quote so much.
You want a "why not?"
How bout the way your best friends older sister will throw up by the side of the road because she's crying so hard
How about the way your best friend will cry for weeks in her shower in her bed and in the bathroom at school
How about the way your mother will cry everything she looks at herself in the mirror and pictures bringing you home
How about the way your fathers eyes will NEVER stop mirroring the image of your hanging body
Or how about the way your boyfriend will sit in his room in silence unable to sleep or eat or even shower because why would he want to go on without you
How about the girl who called you a brother will cry when she sees your parents
How about how your family will sit in silence after your funeral looking blankly at one another because God knows they can't find a single thing to say that doesn't just float through the air where you should be walking
How about the way your sister will wake up and see your door and convince herself you're on the other side sleeping in bed
How about the way your ex girlfriend will come over and pull your clothes from the drawer while she cries holding them to her face trying to breathe in what's left of you
Don't you dare say things won't change
There may be stars in the sky wind in the air and sun in the clouds
But without you we don't want them
