Should I major in Philosophy or Literature
What should I be doing

And this is how I feel when I use the bookstore.

Library for life lads.

Repost because no one said anything :(

I am a candle. I burned at the feast.
Gather my wax and melt me into water:
see the droplets as they form,
watch the shapes they make.
Pour me onto the page and
cover the words so you too
may remember how to weep, how to
shiver in the morning dew,
gather the last third of yourself and
send it off on a raft of twin and
childhood weeds,
amidst the mint and purple loosestrife,
you crumpled there in the rain heavy lilacs,
eyes and mouth filled with dirt.
See the frozen peat reflect
that mirror world, where the barn
burns in the rain and it rains in the house and,
like a book,
you burn posthumously;
where words like ‘you’ and ‘I’ see
much reform.
And decompose into the moss;
learn to die and let the snow melt
from those ancient boughs about you.
