The good thing about time Is that it passes, Whether or not You are ready for it to. Whether or not You want it to.

Sometimes I feel like a caretaker of a museum — a huge, empty museum where no one ever comes, and I’m watching over it for no one but myself.

girls loving girls? pure. girls walking down the street holding hands? amazing. girls kissing at the beach? perfect. girls running into each others arms at airports? The Dream.

Riverbeds

Veins are reddened tribituaries Snaking through wrists and hip bones and

Why should rivers feed forth if I Still have no home to return to?

Preparing to flood them, carving a Path to divert them onto the banks and into A sea over skin

Nothing is lost If everything is.

But hearts are not homes And just surviving the sea Is not living

It is much harder To love the delicate branching of streams To allow yourself the grace to Breathe too gently to Bear salinity

Riverbeds hold more life Than tidal waves ever could.

Just finished this today in commemoration of being 1.5 years self-harm free. Decided to buck up some courage and submit here; hope you like it!

Review : This piece is crafted with such great detail that it clearly paints a vivid picture. I’m loving the analogies and I especially like the last two lines. Really well done, keep writing!❤

I want to be good at not texting you back either.

I want to be good at leaving you on delivered.

I want to be good at not wanting you the same way you don’t want me.
