“I am in the middle of it: chaos and poetry; poetry and love and again, complete chaos. Pain, disorder, occasional clarity; and at the bottom of it all: only love; poetry. Sheer enchantment, fear, humiliation. It all comes with love.”

— Anna Akhmatova, from The Akhmatova Journals (via violentwavesofemotion)

“I’m in pain because the day is ending and somehow I am never healing.”
