when i was told to make a wish on a candle by one of my housemates the other day, the first wish i could think of was for you to be happy

[anxinyi]

i miss you so much that my love for you radiates out of my chest and weaves itself into everything. there is a piece of my love for you in everything i say and do.

posts that make me want to rip my heart out part 5

it always really bothered me as a kid when people would act like the “meaning of life” is some big mystery when it was always so clear to me. i knew the meaning of life every night when i laid down beside my parents, i stared into its eyes when i got my first cat, i held its hand each time i crossed the street with my mom, i tasted it when my grandparents gave me candy without my moms permission, i felt it well up in my eyes when my dad moved out, and every time before i hang up my phone i hear it whisper “i love you.”

it feels like everything is just slightly off-kilter without you here. like a crack in the mirror, everything seems distorted just a little even when i'm out trying to have a good time with my friends. something always brings me back. today a stranger i met at my friend's birthday party had your brother's name and walked with me to the subway station. as we crossed the road he held his hand out in front of a car and explained that he did that because he didn't want to get hit. how he wanted to live until he was old. and how he apologised and how i wished i could have told him how much i got it. how intimately i knew how fleeting and delicate life was. today a stranger made me cry.

the real depression nap is when you go to bed at 10pm just because you can’t think of any reason to be awake

attention

[cozybug-deactivated20231208]

be poetic. if you find the way the light falls through your window and onto your bedroom wall pretty, write about it. call it soft and golden as sunlit honey. if it makes you glad to be alive then it’s not silly. you look for the beauty of things, be proud of that. say the heavy rain is kissing you. write about the glow of the moon, the dancing of flowers. make your world magical. collect your metaphors and treasure them.

you know…if I wore a mood ring it’d always say I’m in love

[skittles-rainbow-cat]

saying “i love you” is so freeing though, like your best friend does a silly dance in the parking lot so you say “i love you” or your partner says something rly dumb but it makes you laugh so you say “i love you” or one of your parents brings you some of the food they cooked so you say “i love you” it’s so freeing and pure and human so maybe we should say “i love you” a little more often
