Horizons, cheap whiskey straight from the bottle and your hands in mine.

Human interaction. The most complicated form of happiness I will never figure out.

Hurting people you love is the heaviest kind of regret.

I am a complicated person with a simple life.

I am a complicated person with a simple life, and I am the reason for everything that ever happened to me.

I am a free soul, singing my heart out by myself no matter where I go, and I call strangers my friends because I learn things and find ways to fit them into my own world. I hear what people say, rearrange it, take away and tear apart until it finds value in my reality and there I make it work. Furthermore, I find spaces in between the cracks and cuts where it feels empty and there I make it work.

I am a worried person with a stressed out soul, living a simple life with no capital.

I am clumsy, drop glasses and get drunk on Monday afternoons. I read Seneca and can recite Shakespeare by heart, but I mess up the laundry, don’t answer my phone and blame the world when something goes wrong. Furthermore, I think I have a dream, but most of the days I’m still sleeping. The grass is cut. It smells like strawberries. Today I finished four books and cleaned my drawers. Do you believe in a God? Can I tell you about Icarus? How he flew too close to the sun? I want to make coming home your favorite part of the day. I want to leave tiny little words lingering in your mind, on nights when you’re far away and can’t sleep. Furthermore, I want to make everything around us beautiful; make small things mean a little more. Make you feel a little more. A little better, a little lighter. The coffee is warm, this cup is yours. I want to be someone you can’t live without. I want to be someone you can’t live without.

I am constantly torn between the will to be seen and still hidden, so god-damn well, a contradiction I never figured out.

— Charlotte Eriksson

I am living a simple life with a complicated mind and I have yet to find a state of mind where I feel safe with who I am, where I am, with what I do.
