"I feel infinite" - The Perks of Being a Wallflower (book), highly recommended by the way :)

it went
Mind led body
to the edge of the precipice.
They stared in desire

If you love me, said mind,
take that step into silence.
If you love me, said body,

the last line always stuck with me becasue i was contemplating suicide at the time and the meaning was so profound... just the theological matter, the immorality the act.... that it summed up so well the war that was being waged within quite a thing to ponder, the mind and the body actually putting words to the things a person with depression deals with. so yes. i live by that last line "if you love me said body, turn and exist." and i have.
