Forget Her Not

pictures will fade and flesh will rot, but darling please forget her not

spacesofsound:

And there will be the day when you will fall. Fall to the deepest of sufferings and the most painful of outcomes. All defenses break, and everything you have ever inhibited for so long will pour out. This is the moment of weakness, the moment of vulnerability, when you realize that you are so far removed from the stability and normalcy you thought you had already achieved.   

Yet the point is that there’s no other direction to go to and no other action to do next but to rise up again. To rise, and to turn away from everything that may break you, fighting them with the clarity of a single thought in your mind: These will not hurt me anymore. 

This transcendence is what will define you, and define your humanity. Perhaps you will fall again, and fail again, in your pursuit to transcend. Yet the suffering is the inevitable experience, necessary for you to remember: this is the condition you will never want to return to, the condition that will urge you to become.
