Dark academia helps us hide from the fear of living a boring life.

i sit in the sun. i drink tea. i recieve a message from my friend. i read a book. i take a walk. i fall in love with life a little bit.

“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. [...] When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”  🩸

“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” 🌻

bitches be like “this is the best piece of literature i have ever read” and it’s either a book that took them six weeks to finish or a fanfic they read at 3 AM

“Promise me not to hide yourself when you’re in pain, it’s unfair that we laughed together but you cried alone”

"Your worst sin is that you have destroyed and betrayed yourself for nothing."

– Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment.
