Sometimes, especially at night, I realize my cheeks are wet.

I don't know why I'm crying, but the world feels heavy against my chest. My heart bangs against the boney bars encaging it, each beat coming closer to breaking free of my ribs.

I want to run, but I can't escape myself. I want to fight, but I've already hurt myself. I want to hide, but I can always find myself.

So, I sit with it. I've nearly made a ritual of doing so: a formal greeting of whatever emotion this is followed by a request for a name.

I still don't have an answer.

Feeling safe in someone's energy is a different type of intimacy. That peace of mind and security is very underrated and I cannot emphasize this enough.

I would have kept choosing you forever but you made me choose myself.

“What’s the worst thing I’ve stolen? Probably little pieces of other people’s lives. Where I’ve either wasted their time or hurt them in some way. That’s the worst thing you can steal, the time of other people. You just can’t get that back.”
