Books are a special kind of poison. They soothe every ache inside of you while making you long for things that don’t exist. They make you feel alive while simultaneously making life seem more and more dull with every page you read. Reading makes you feel less alone and yet it creates an ache for companionship - the likes of which you will never know outside of those pages.
Books are a poison I wish I had never drunk, but now that I have - it’s the one thing keeping me alive.

Friend: You have enough books!
Me: But I don’t have these books!
I lie. My family and friends are the best.
They are very indulgent of all the books I buy myself
They also buy me all the books I want.
