touch of sunlight

eros | 19 | he/they sometimes I’m a little bit poetic

[atouchofsunlight]

I see us reflected in stories that aren’t ours

It scares the hell out me

I try to know that they aren’t how the pages will turn

Yet I still dream

And in those stories I see

[atouchofsunlight]

conformity seems to bring others joy but I think it would kill me

[atouchofsunlight]

it’s such a strange thing to perceive a future where we all return to the soil

[atouchofsunlight]

I will always be who I was and who I will never be

[atouchofsunlight]

every teardrop is proof that you’re human <3

[atouchofsunlight]

It’s ok to feel big emotions, even if you feel so small

[atouchofsunlight]

I do not believe in a place after death.

Sometimes I wish I did.

If only so I could see my dog again.

[atouchofsunlight]

Every now and then I go back to the courtyard

There was so many signs that I was losing you

[atouchofsunlight]

I’m sorry

I became your Saturn’s rings

You didn’t mean me to be

[atouchofsunlight]

I can’t be mad at you for shining

It wasn’t your fault that you blinded me

[atouchofsunlight]

how can I miss you when you’re right there?

Bashō, The Sound of Water: Haiku by Bashō, Buson, Issa, and Other Poets

[atouchofsunlight]

your sunlight has become too bright

sharp pinpoints stab my heart

even when you are looking away

[atouchofsunlight]

It’s hard when every failed crush seems to confirm the idea of being unlovable

[atouchofsunlight]

I hope when death comes it sounds like my old dog’s claws on the hardwood floor

[atouchofsunlight]

Dogs have always been so much easier to talk to

[atouchofsunlight]

We are born from stardust and molded by every person we meet
