So I have to be prepared to lose her for this. Which is more than I can probably take. A life without her would be empty. And that’s the problem with art. You have to be willing to lay what you love the most upon the altar. You have to willing to pick up the dagger and slit its throat above the golden bowl. If not you're better off a banker.
And I need all the reasons I can find not to hate myself. But it’s hard. Even the idea makes me shiver. Because I see loving myself like looking down on others. Riding around on a high horse. And I never want to think I’m better then the people I see on the street. The ones who have it rough. The ones who don’t fit in. The ones I see my own face in.
damn
