“I was going to cry. I didn’t know why I was going to cry, but I knew that if anybody spoke to me or looked at me too closely the tears would fly out of my eyes and the sobs would fly out of my throat and I’d cry for a week. I could feel the tears brimming and sloshing in me like water in a glass that is unsteady and too full.” — Sylvia Plath (via thenocturnals)

“The whole reason I’m having us talk about my record and what I get afraid might happen is that I don’t want it to happen, see? […]I don’t want to get all testy or hypercritical or pull away and not be around for days at a time… Does this make any sense? Can you believe that I’m honestly trying to respect you by warning you about me, in a way? That I’m trying to by honest instead of dishonest? That I’ve decided that the best way to head off this pattern where you get hurt and fell abandoned and I fell like sh!! Is to try to be honest for once. Even if I should have done it sooner?[…]Do you understand that I’m trying as hard as I can to love you? That I’m terrified that I can’t love?” —
