As of 2 days ago this blog officially turned 7 years old.

That's crazy to me. I know I don't really post here anymore, but I suppose I want to say thank you to all of you still interacting with my posts and writing, even if said writing was coming from an unmedicated teenager who didn't know what to do with himself, lol

If you like what I post and what I do, consider following my poetry account patronsaintpoetry on Instagram. I'm working on bringing those works to here on Tumblr as well.

Once again, thank you all!

you feel a tsunami stirring up inside your ribcage; a tidal and devasting rage

Have you ever looked closely at the ocean’s surface at night? 

Have you ever wondered what it looked like from underneath the waves?

Have you ever noticed that we look back?

I believe it says asks are open - something for a mermaid or siren’s lullaby?

Mermaids' tears are made of opal and seafoam, iridescent in the sun. They are highly valuable. Do not waste them over one who does not care for you. Do not pluck off your own scales for one who will throw them away.

an exploration in waves

[deepsea-suggestion]

The effect of the sea is one that does not leave you. It runs in your veins and aches and aches to return. It beats in your heart and turns every love into a regrettable loss.

The ghost of you still haunts my home. The smell of sea salt floods my house every time it storms. I can tell when you're here- there's a puddle leaking from the other side of this door, from the room beyond. I can see you standing on the other side of it, your shadow. Why don't you open it?
