Quote by Sarah Williams

“I said, "The darkness shall content my soul;" God said," Let there be light." I said, "The night shall see me reach my goal;" Instead, came dawning bright. I bared my head to meet the smiter's stroke; There came sweet-dropping oil. I waited, trembling, but the voice that spoke, Said gently, "Cease thy toil.”

“From time and time again, I reach a place where no human can comfort my aching heart. My parents, siblings, and friends regardless of how much they wish to see me become the person they've idealized for me, I fail utterly. It seems like I am at the edge where I can very much negate or deny their existence.It's like they are needed no more. I wish to be with them no longer. I struggle to breathe and they suffocate the air that I can breathe. And the inhaler for me is the love of that one person who has dimmed my whole being into this darkness where I cannot see the dot of light from the darkness within and around me! Ain't I sick? Yes, I agree. I am sick.”
