nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how “busy you were”
- how many hours you worked
people will remember:
- how much sunscreen you wore
- if you offered other people sunscreen
- if you told others to wear sunscreen
@tswifterastour we were robbed of a ‘all at once you are the one I have been waiting for … and that was the moment I knew that I like shiny things but I’d marry you with paper rings’
The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time - one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the author’s life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it.
And then all that’s left behind is the tortured poetry.
