“Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.”
—Sigmund Freud (via vanessalux)
“Please let him come, and give me the resilience & guts to make him respect me, be interested, and not to throw myself at him with loudness or hysterical yelling; calmly, gently, easy baby easy. He is probably strutting the backs among crocuses now with seven Scandinavian mistresses. And I sit, spiderlike, waiting, here, home; Penelope weaving webs of Webster, turning spindles of Tourneur. Oh, he is here; my black marauder; oh hungry hungry. I am so hungry for a big smashing creative burgeoning burdened love: I am here; I wait; and he plays on the banks of the river Cam like a casual faun. ”
—Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath (March 10, 1956)
